Bed bugs are small and can be difficult to spot. Typically, a full-grown bed bug will be around five millimeters -- that’s about as wide as a pencil eraser. But there are some other things to look for to help you know you have a bed bug infestation.

Check for bites on your body. These might look like raised, red bumps similar to mosquito or flea bites. Bites can be a good sign you have bed bugs, but is not a reliable indicator.

So, also look for bed bug skin shells -- these are leftover exoskeletons left behind by bed bugs, bed bug droppings, blood stains on your sheets or mattress, or any bed bug activity.

Check all seams and tufts in your mattress; behind headboard or footboards; in your bed frame; cracks and crevices in dressers or nightstands; under lamps or clocks, inside pictures frames, behind electrical outlets, and behind or near baseboards.

Bed bugs are flat and brown. They will elongate and turn a reddish color after feeding. You can distinguish a bed bug over a flea or tick by noting its flat body and that the legs are not easily seen like a tick’s.
