Bedbug feeding on human
Videonummer 11932267
| Bed bug (Cimex lectularius), approximately 6 mm in size, rocking back and forth as it sucks blood from its human host. The rocking motion is thought to help bed bugs draw more blood from its hosts, enabling the bugs to gorge themselves. Bed bugs feed by injecting a sharp mouthpart called a stylet into the skin. Blood can be seen traveling through the stylet, which resembles a corkscrew in this view. The bed bug's saliva includes an anaesthetic which numbs the pain of its bite. Bed bugs have been notorious pests throughout history and are making a comeback in many cities throughout the world. Gorged specimens can survive several months between blood meals. | |
