Bed Bugs (खटमल) are so-called because they are mainly found in beds. They are found across the world and they spread easily. Bed Bugs are insects that are light brown to reddish-brown, flat and oval bodied insects. Adults bed bugs can grow up to 4–5 mm (0.16–0.20 in) long and 1.5–3 mm (0.059–0.118 in) wide. Bed Bugs are not just a significant problem in India and but also around the world.
Bed Bugs are found everywhere across the globe – in schools, daycare centers, hospitals, hotels, public transport, and offices.
Bed Bugs can exist singly but tend to collect and form groups once in contact with each other. They are parasitic by nature but they spend a very tiny fraction of their lifecycles physically attached to hosts. Once a Bed Bugs finishes feeding, it will move to a place close to a known host, generally inside the mattress, in or near beds or couches, luggage, inside of vehicles, within furniture, among bedside clutter—even inside electrical sockets and nearby laptop computers in groups of adults, juveniles. Bed Bugs also make their nests near animals. They are also capable of surviving on domestic cats and dogs, rats, and even bats though humans are their favorite and preferred host.
Bed Bugs have five stages of being a nymph which is sexually not active and after this becomes an adult that becomes sexually active. From one stage to another of being nymph it discards its skin. Newly hatched nymphs are translucent, lighter in color, and become browner as they cross each stage and move towards adulthood and maturity. Bed Bugs are usually mistaken for other insects like booklice, small cockroaches, or carpet beetles; however, when warm and active, their movements are more like ants and they emit a characteristic odor when crushed. The life span of a bed bug ranges from 4 to 6 months.
Bed bugs multiply very quickly, so quickly that in just six months, a few Bed Bugs can turn into an army of more than 13,000 or more Bed Bugs.
