Bed Bugs Denver, Colorado

Bed bugs feed on blood, but they prefer humans because animals have thick fur, which forces them to dig deeper before reaching the skin. As they feed, they inject their saliva, which provides an anesthetic effect because the host does not feel anything; it also stops blood clotting, allowing them to feed without holdup. While they are not known to transmit diseases, bed bug bites cause red, itchy welts on the skin.
