How to tell it is a bedbug bite

Written by Abet Tonny

Bedbugs love to bite exposed parts of the body when you are sleeping. The bites are often around the face, neck, wrist and leg. 

The most clear signs of bedbug bites include:
  • red and swollen, with a dark spot at the center of each bite
  • arranged in lines or clusters, with multiple bites grouped together
  • itchy
Besides these their bites, bedbugs can also be detected using fecal spots which is always brownish or red.

Adult bedbugs also leave behind amber-coloured transparent skins that look like hollow insect.

One can also see live moving bedbug. Adult bedbug is an oval-shaped insect -about the size and length of watermelon seed. It has no wings and is brownish in colour but blood coloured when fed.
