Bed bugs do not get into our communities and homes on their own. The only way they can travel is by catching a ride on someone or something. Whether that is on your luggage, clothing, or skin, bed bugs travel into homes from locations where a previous bed bug infestation already existed.

Areas where many people frequently visit, such as airports, school systems, libraries, and work environments are often hotspots for bed bugs to travel from one spot to another.

Adult bed bugs are small, reddish-brown insects that are similar in size and shape to an apple seed. Bed bug nymphs look similar to adults but are smaller and are transparent white in colour.
