Do I have bedbugs or fleas in my bed?

Question by Kellz:
Do I have bedbugs or fleas in my bed?

A few nights ago we noticed a couple little redish-brown bugs on our sheets. They are about the size of an ant. We were concerned there might be more so we pulled up the sheets and found about 10 others! My husband vacuumed them up and we haven’t seen them again. What kind of bugs are these and do I need to be worried that they’ll come back? I live in campus rental housing in Arizona if that makes a difference.

Best answer:

Answer by u dont know me
ya i sounds like bed bugs but if they start to jump then they are fleas but if u don’t have any animals in your ho9me then it probably ain’t fleas what u need to do i wash all the sheets and blankets on your bed then vacuum the mattress and flip it over and vacuum the other side

Hi

I don’t think they were fleas, but they might be if they were jumping rather then crawling.

I have added a link so you can see whether they look like cimicidae (bed bugs).

If you have been bitten, you may need cream for it. Cimicidae are very difficult to remove.

Hope this helps
