Bat Bed Bugs will feed on humans if they become separated from their usual bat hosts. Bat Bed Bugs have longer pronotum, or "fur" on their head and "cheeks". <br /><br />Also of note, Bed Bugs are true Bugs belonging to the order Hemiptera. Therefore, the common convention is to spell Bed Bug as two words, instead of "Bedbug" one word. Another example: the "house fly" is really a fly, but a "firefly" is really a beetle so it is spelled as one word. Same thing with "Ladybug", it is not a true "bug - Hemiptera" but a beetle so it is spelled as one word. <br /><br />~Michigan Micro<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-629132641307534690.post-30466843095097984812016-03-15T05:32:02.072-05:002016-03-15T05:32:02.072-05:00Bed BugBed BugAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12600333359872394068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-629132641307534690.post-46225060944195808622016-03-14T20:27:21.126-05:002016-03-14T20:27:21.126-05:00Well, I wonder where the patient has been bedding?...Well, I wonder where the patient has been bedding? Nice case of bed bug Cimex lectularius. These pesky creatures not only infest beds, hiding in the cracks and crevices, they also can hide during day time in the cracks of cement walls such as those of prisons too and come out at night time to feed on their victims.<br /><br />Florida FanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-629132641307534690.post-88885863360446426722016-03-14T19:16:36.934-05:002016-03-14T19:16:36.934-05:00bedbug
