Unlikely Places Bed Bugs Could Be Living
While the name "bed bugs" might be obvious, one of the reasons they are so hard to get rid of is because they aren’t just living and hiding out in your mattress or bedding. In fact, bed bugs live all over your home, including:
- Pet bedding: If you have pets, bed bugs will set up shop in their bedding as well. Bed bugs are parasites, so they hang out anywhere they can have easy access to a host to feed off of, whether that's you or your pets.
- Inside your clothing: Bed bugs also love your clothing, and are likely to be found hitching rides on you that way.
- Furniture: It should come as no surprise that bed bugs also find refuge in your furniture, especially since it offers them a place to hide and access to a host for a blood meal.
- Carpeting: These pests will also hide out in your carpeting and rugs if you have any.
