Although bed bugs are not currently considered major transmitters of human diseases, allergic reactions can occur in some individuals. Reactions may range from mild redness and swelling to more significant skin irritation requiring medical attention. Anyone experiencing severe symptoms should seek advice from a healthcare professional.
Recognizing the warning signs of an infestation is essential. Common indicators include unexplained bite marks, small blood stains on bedding, dark spots that may represent insect waste, shed skins, or the presence of live insects in mattress seams and furniture crevices.
