Question by Smooth:
What are the differences between bedbug bites and spider bites?

I got bit by something the other day. That’s red and and incredibly itchy. I thought it was a spider bite but after looking up pictures, I’m not paranoid that it might be a bedbug bite. So what are the differences?

Also, how can I tell if I have bedbug’s?

Bed Bug Bites are from blood sucking creatures called “cimex lectularius” that actually feed on your blood and could be living inside your mattress. They are afraid of light and are VERY fast. Spiders bite humans out of self defense. Spiders consume other bugs.
