Bed bugs are small, brown insects that look like ovals. They live by feeding on the blood of animals or humans. Bed bugs size is usually about the size of an apple or lemon seed. After bed bugs have a blood meal, their bodies can swell dramatically and they turn from brown to red.
While bed bugs do not fly, they can move quickly. They are small and hard to spot, so they move quickly throughout floors, walls, and ceilings. Females can lay hundreds of bed bugs eggs at a time. Because they are the size of a speck of dust, they are even harder to spot.
