 | | Bedbugs (or bed bugs) are small nocturnal insects of the family Cimicidae that live by hematophagy, feeding on the blood of humans and other warm-blooded hosts. | | | Photograph of a bedbug feeding on a man (for scale) | | | The visible bedbug infestation does not represent the infestation as a whole, as there may be infestations elsewhere in a home, however, the insects do have tendency to stay close to their hosts (hence the name "bed" bugs). |

When Harlan is not letting the pesky insects feed on his forearm, he's studying their behavior to assess the best way to eradicate them. |

| | The bedbug, or Cimex lectularius, has not been a serious problem in the United States since the early 1940s, when the pesticide DDT came into widespread use. | | | After DDT was banned in the early 1970s, pesticides in categories such as organo-phosphates, carbamates and pyretheroids took up the slack. | | | Phil Koehler, an urban entomologist with the University of Florida's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, said the bedbug's preferred food source -- a sleeping human -- is available no matter how clean the environment. |

| | Bedbugs are back and spreading through New York City like a swarm of locusts on a lush field of wheat. | | | Worst of all, bedbug sufferers say, is the stigma of living with an insect that feeds on blood - though it does not transmit disease - and leaves behind a trail of red bumps that many dermatologists mistakenly identify as hives or scabies. | | | In the bedbug resurgence, entomologists and exterminators blame increased immigration from the developing world, the advent of cheap international travel and the recent banning of powerful pesticides. |
