Can a Bed Bug Make Me or My Pet Ill?

Fortunately for both people and pets, bed bugs are not known to transmit disease. Some people or animals develop red welts or itchy lesions, which are often mistaken for flea or mosquito bites. So while they can cause discomfort and significant mental distress, bed bugs won’t give you or your pets diseases, though in severe cases scratching can lead to secondary skin infections. Many times people don’t notice bites at all. [Answer by authorized Vet]

If you suspect a bed bug infestation, seek professional pest control services immediately. Bed bugs are notoriously difficult to get rid of, and attempts to exterminate them on your own can be ineffective or even make the problem worse. With the help of a qualified exterminator, you can develop a comprehensive bed bug treatment plan that includes heat treatments, chemical treatments, or a combination of both.
