How Do Bed Bugs Spread And Multiply?
Bed bugs need to drink blood in order to lay eggs, multiply and progress through the various stages of development each parasite experiences. An adult female can lay up to 500 eggs in her lifetime and just a few bedbugs can result in thousands of bugs in just a few months. Bed bugs seek out blood prior to mating and use cluttered areas to lay as many as 4 to 6 eggs each day. They can work their way up walls and will constantly seek a warm blooded host to be used as supply for their development. If left untreated, they rapidly generate more bed bugs resulting in more mouths to feed and more bites on you and your family. Like any insect, if the bed bugs find a cluttered area they are comfortable in, and their blood meals are readily available, they will stay and multiply aggressively. Early stage treatments avoid lengthy infestation and ends the breeding cycle faster.
