Methods Of Treating Bedbug Bites

Bedbugs are a common pest around the world. Once nearly eradicated, they’re making a strong comeback in countries like the United States. They infest cabins, hotels, and parks where families attract them and bring them home unaware of their presence. Commonly found in dark, warm areas, these parasites feed on their host while it sleeps. They are attracted to a host’s warmth and the carbon dioxide it exhales, making humans a prime candidate for feeding. Contrary to popular belief, beds are not their only home. Closets, bathrooms, and almost anywhere else can be a shelter for these pests. Typically, families are unaware they have bedbugs until they are bitten. At first, the bites may appear as a rash, or the host may misclassify them for another type of bite, such as a mosquito bite. Bedbug bites are immensely uncomfortable for many individuals, but others may feel nothing at all.
