WHAT IS BED BUGS?
Bedbugs belong to the genus Cimex. In Malaysia, the Tropical Bed Bug (Cimex hemipterus) is the most frequent species encountered, especially in hotels, hostels, and residential properties. They are well adapted to hiding in narrow cracks and crevices.
APPEARANCE & HIDING PLACES
Adult bedbugs are brown to reddish-brown, measuring 4–5 mm with a flat, oval-shaped body. Because they lack wings, they hide in:
- Bedding: Mattress seams, bed frames, and headboards.
- Furniture: Sofa joints and upholstery.
- Room Fixtures: Curtain folds, wall crevices, and behind electrical outlets.
SIGNS OF INFESTATION
Early detection is key. Look out for these common indicators:
• Rust-colored stains on bedding (crushed bugs).
• Dark fecal spots (dot-sized) on furniture.
• Shed skins from developing nymphs.
• Small eggs (yellowish-white, ~1mm).
PREVENTION TIPS
1. Inspect Secondhand Furniture: Examine used items before bringing them indoors.
2. Protect Your Mattress: Use light-colored, protective encasements for easier detection.
3. Travel Cautiously: Avoid placing luggage on carpets; wash travel clothes in hot water immediately after returning.
CONCLUSION
Bedbugs are persistent and difficult to eliminate without professional knowledge. If you suspect an infestation, professional pest control services are strongly recommended to ensure effective, long-term eradication and peace of mind.
