Bed Bug Life Cycle

A good insight of these bug's life cycle will give us more insight of what we are contending with. Let us take a peek into these biny suckers' world. These tiny pests originate from their eggs, akin to other insects. The egg's size is around 1mm long and within 2-7 days, the egg will hatch and this hatchling will turn into bed bug larvae. This 0.5 mm-long maggot can already draw blood from you at this point and your blood will nourish it turning its translucent body into crimson.

Prior to becoming mature, the maggots of these pests go straight through five nymphal phases that will somewhat last from 32 to 45 days. A mature pest takes about 7 months before it can lay scores of eggs estimated in the middle of 300 to 500 eggs per adult pest. At this rate of reproduction, they can populate and infest our homes in just a few months giving us further tiny creatures to deal with and more itchy bites to scratch.

Hundreds of bites caused by mature and bed bug larvae can follow to paleness due to loss of blood ultimately foremost to anemia. Then you get to wonder how was it inherent that you do not feel whatever when these tiny pests were feeding on you?

These pesticides are strong enough to be able to eradicate the adult pests as well as their maggots. Hunt them now before it gets late!
