Metabolic Resistance in Bed Bugs [PDF]
Insects, 2011 Blood-feeding insects have evolved resistance to various insecticides (organochlorines, pyrethroids, carbamates, etc.) through gene mutations and increased metabolism. Bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) are hematophagous ectoparasites that are poised to become one of the major pests in households throughout the United States. Currently, C.

BEDBUGS (BED BUGS): THE BASIC KNOWLEDGE [PDF]
Journal of the Egyptian Society of Parasitology, 2018 The common bed bug, Cimex lectularius, is an obligate blood-feeding ectoparasite that preferentially feeds on humans. All stages feed on blood and require a blood meal to molt (nymphs) and reproduce (adults).

Bed Bugs: The Australian Response [PDF]
Insects, 2011 Australia has experienced a sudden and unexpected resurgence in bed bug infestations from both Cimex lectularius L. and Cimex hemipterus F. A survey in 2006 revealed that infestations had increased across the nation by an average of 4,500% since the start of the decade. In response, a multi-disciplinary approach to combat the rise of this public health
