A female bed bug lays 200 eggs in her lifetime with eggs being small, sticky, white rice like and hatch in only 10 days. The nymphs (babies) molt 5 times before entering adulthood (takes about 21 days) and after the first feeding, have a dark center. The adults look like an apple seed and are a quarter inch in length and feed on blood to survive.

Adults feed by sucking your blood for about 10 minutes sometime before dawn while youre in deep sleep and less likely to notice. After feeding, they defecate (leave feces) which looks like brown spots on the bedding. When there are a lot of bed bugs, youll smell a sweet musty odor.

The smell, dark spots and moltings are dead giveaways to their hiding spots. This is what youre going to look for when search for bed bugs.
