Notoriously Tiny Predators
Bed bugs are minute and tiny miniscule creatures that creep slowly. They look like tiny crawling dots when seen by the naked eye during broad daylight. People have their perception and viewpoint as to how bed bugs look like. But in general, as can be seen in pictures printed all over text books, magazines or even online via the Internet, bed bugs closely resemble their closest relatives---mites. Physical attributes Since bed bugs are so tiny, it will be hard if you attempt to just capture one and closely look at it. If you're really curious, you may try. But it's advisable that you make use of a magnifying glass or lens. Also be certainly that the insect is already dead or paralyzed before touching it for inspection. Otherwise, you may find out for yourself how bed bugs generally look like, but may be a catalyst in spreading the pest. Remember, minute insects like bed bugs are very resilient, contrary to how they look like. Touching it for inspection, the bed bug might sprint away or crawl out of your palm. Look at pictures of bed bugs in dissimilar easily accessible sources if you really want to know how it appearance like. To describe bed bugs, they generally are so small. Usually, they are colored deep brown. Bt some bed bugs might appear white to creamy white. When bed bugs are full of blood (by the way, they suck blood for a living), they usually appear or look differently. Bed bugs which just enjoyed a sumptuous meal of blood from unwilling and unaware hosts, look bloated. Normally, bed bugs look flat when viewed from to bottom. But having blood in their stomach, bed bugs may look like tiny balloons. The difference, apparently, is that what is inside them is not air but blood. Presence of host's blood inside their systems can also make bed bugs appear like tiny creatures with little black or deep red masses inside their bodies. Wingless creatures Unfortunately, for the bed bugs, they are wingless. That means the only technique they travel from one place to another to find hosts or perfect habitats, is via crawling. That can be tough. But imagine how rampant and wide spread they could have been if they have wings to enable them to easily fly around and wander. Bed bugs look like tiny creatures, they are tinier than ants and mites, that creep into, via and from crevices, minute cracks and tiny holes in floors, walls, furniture, bed and even clothes and bed sheets. Bed bugs do not look like vampires or bats, but they are also nocturnal. It means they are out of sight during daytime, but go out to feed themselves during the night, when the unsuspecting victim or host is sleeping tightly. By the way, so miniscule they may seem, but did you know that bed bugs, when reaching their full adult stage, can grow and lengthen by as long as a quarter of an inch? If you happen to closely look at one, or if you have seen one, for sure you have wished that they could have stayed tiny. Bed bugs' life span Bed bugs really look so tiny, but did you know that on the average, adult bed bugs (with the assumption they feed periodically are not starved) can last more than a year without eating food? It is true. Younger bed bugs, which, if unable to suck blood from hosts, would only last a few weeks to about a month. That is much shorter compared to their adult counterparts, but is apparently proves their resilience. Bed bugs look like they are not active in the reproductive department, but is another wrong assumption. During their life span, female bed bugs can carry and live three pregnancies. Whenever they lay eggs, they lay about 300 tiny eggs. That is still pretty much considering their body size. To wrap things up, size really do matter. In bed bugs' case they prove that they are minute but terrible. You may not exactly picture out how they may exactly look like, but knowing their functions and notoriety will be an effective measure and equipment against them. |
