The risks of bed bug bites
Bedbugs can live in any home or public area. But they're common in places that have a lot of people, a lot of turnover, and close quarters. You may be at increased risk for encountering bedbugs if you live or work in a:
- Hotel
- Hospital
- Homeless shelter
- College / School / Nurcery
- Apartment complex
- Restaurant / Laundry / Office
Unlike some types of bugs, bedbugs don't transmit diseases when they bite. But in some cases, bedbug bites can become infected. Potential signs and symptoms of an infection include:
- Pain and tenderness radiating from the bite
- Redness, swelling, or warmth around the bite
- Red streaks or spots near the bite
- Pus or drainage from the bite
- Dimpling of your skin
- Fever
- Chills
