Are bed bugs only found in beds?

Asked 6 months ago
No, bed bugs are not only found in beds. While bed frames, mattresses, and box springs are common hiding spots, these pests can infest a variety of other areas as well. Bed bugs can be found in upholstered furniture, such as chairs and couches, as well as in cracks and crevices of walls, floors, and baseboards. They are also known to dwell in electrical outlets, picture frames, and carpet edges. Additionally, bed bugs can be found in public spaces like hotels, movie theaters, and public transportation, infesting seats, luggage racks, and even clothing. It is important to thoroughly inspect and treat all these potential hiding spots to effectively eliminate bed bug infestations.
