Abstract
The common bed bug, Cimex lectularius, is an obligate blood-feeding ectoparasite that preferentially feeds on humans. All stages feed on blood and require a blood meal to molt (nymphs) and reproduce (adults). Differential diagnosis of bed bug bites is difficult and insufficient to determine the bed bugs or their extent. Infestation is a worldwide epidemic due to emergence of insecticide-resistant strains.
