Bed bugs are external parasitic pests that prefer to feed on human blood. Although bed bugs can and occasionally will bite animals, they prefer human blood because we have wide areas of exposed skin. Keeping bed bugs out of your Tempe home or business can seem like a daunting task, especially when you don’t know how they invade in the first place. To help you understand these resilient pests a little bit more, here is some useful information that will help you get a more in-depth understanding of bed bugs. 

• Bed bugs are hitchhiking pests. Instead of hopping or flying from one location to another, like most insects, bed bugs require your help. They will crawl onto the bags and belongings of unsuspecting individuals and hitch a ride into a home or business. This hitchhiking behavior is why bed bug infestations can be so difficult to prevent. 
• You are most likely to pick up bed bugs when you travel through areas with a lot of foot traffic. Bed bugs are often found in schools, movie theaters, airports, daycares, hotel lobbies, and other public locations. 
• Bed bugs have a knack for hiding. Once bed bugs have gotten into your home or business, they will find a tight crack or crevice to squeeze into during the day. They can hide behind wallpaper, inside mattresses, underneath floorboards, in furniture, inside electrical outlets, and in other hidden places. 

Even if your bed bug infestation begins in one room of your home, they can spread to the whole house if you’re not careful.
