Bed bugs are becoming more common worldwide. Although they do not seem to be involved in any serious disease transmission, their bite can be very irritating.
The activity of bed bugs is usually detected by the irritation caused to sleepers.
If you believe you have an infestation, contact Environmental Health Services at your local council.
The Department of Medical Entomology at the University of Sydney and Westmead Hospital has produced a fact sheet on bed bugs.
