Bed bugs : Bed bugs are one of the most notorious pests to humans. The adults can grow up to a length of 4 to 5 millimetre and have rusty red oval shaped bodies. They are mainly nocturnal and feed primarily on blood. Their bites can trigger itchy skin rashes and allergic reactions. Bedbugs are most likely to be found in the sleeping quarters of motels, hotels, backpackers’ hostels, etc.
 Fleas : Fleas are tiny bloodsucking insects and often exist as parasites on the bodies of dogs, cats, pigs and other mammals.
