Question by Jennifer Park:
Where can i buy LIVE bed bugs?
My boss is actually doing an experiment on bedbugs and he wants me to find out where they keep LIVE bed bugs and where we can purchase them.
I have already tried many entomology departments and had no luck so far.
Even contacted local pest controls but they are telling me that they can not collect a live sample of bedbugs for me.
Is there a site or a shop where they sell them?
Yes, i know the dangers of bedbugs and how contagious they are, thank you.

Why do you want to buy them when you can just go take some from some infested home. Just call around and investigate. If someone has big bites all over them then there you go. Just ringy ding the door bell and confiscate there mattress.

If you are absolutely sure you want the bed bugs, why not place a classified ad?
Bed bugs are becoming an epidemic in the U.S.
I’m sure someone would be willing to sell you live bed bugs…or maybe even give you the bugs for free.
I doubt the bugs can be shipped, so you would want to find someone locally who has an infestation.
Good luck.
