Where To Look
Bed bugs harbor in cracks and crevices during the day and are active mainly at night. They usually hide close to where people sleep and are associated with mattresses, beds, headboards, molding, electrical fixtures, etc. They are most commonly introduced via infested luggage, backpacks or furniture. They may also find harborage in closets, near coat racks and other common areas outside of bedrooms.
