In a funny scene yes,but no not really.
Everyone everywhere has “bed bugs” they are just like microscopic gems and bugs that everyone has. But anyway to get rid of the bugs or to prevent new one what you need to do is Keep all food off the floor,make sure you have no crumbs or anything on the floor. Bugs eat almost any food. Cat and dog food especially.Same goes for water!!! Bugs can last quite a long time without food but only a few days or maybe a week or two with out water. If all else fail call the exterminator!

Belong to the Order of True bugs known as Hemiptera
Family: Cimicidae = Bedbugs.
They are about 1/4 inch in size as adults.
Inspect the seams of your mattress for the fecal matter…blood stains, check for eggs, as well as adult and juvenile bedbugs.
