While You Sleep, the Queens Bed Bugs Eat
By Louis Wright
While you're getting a good night's rest, NYC bed bugs are most active tend to feed once every five to ten days. Queens bed bugs like to hide in the folds and seams of mattresses during the daylight hours. A local NYC bed bug exterminator has informed us that they are attracted to the carbon dioxide from our breath while we sleep. NYC bed bugs sneak out once it gets dark and feast on sleeping humans and quickly return to their hiding spots. It's unlikely you'll even feel a bed bug bite because they have a small amount of a painkiller in their saliva. They have been shown to carry several pathogens but bed bugs have never been shown to transmit them to humans. This is why bed bugs in NYC are not considered to be a threat medically.
