Bed Bug :
Bedbugs are generally active
only at dawn, with a peak attack period about an hour before
dawn, though given the opportunity, they may attempt to feed
at other times. Attracted by warmth and the presence of carbon
dioxide, the bug pierces the skin of its host with two hollow
tubes. With one tube it injects its saliva, which contains
anticoagulants and anesthetics, while with the other it withdraws
the blood of its host. After feeding for about five minutes,
the bug returns to its hiding place. The bites cannot usually
be felt until some minutes or hours later, as a dermatological
reaction to the injected agents.
Although bedbugs can live for a year or as much as 18 months
without feeding, they typically seek blood every five to ten
days. While bedbugs that go dormant for lack of food often
live longer than a year, well-fed specimens typically live
four to six months. Low infestations may be difficult to detect,
and it is not unusual for the victim not to even realize they
have bedbugs early on. Patterns of bites in a row or a cluster
are typical as they may be disturbed while feeding. Bites
may be found in a variety of places on the body.
