As we deal with flies and mosquitoes during the summer, we now face a different kind of guest during the fall: bedbugs. These persistent insects, which thrive in warm, sunny gardens during the summer months, seek refuge indoors when the weather cools down.
Why Bedbugs Enter Your Home
Bedbugs, including the notorious Palomena, which is easily recognized by its distinctive green color, are especially attracted to warm and humid environments. During the colder months, they invade homes, seeking shelter near heat sources such as radiators, heating vents, and humidifiers. They are also drawn to areas with high humidity, such as bathrooms, and sometimes they even hide among the leaves of houseplants.
Common Entry Points
Even if you lock doors and windows, these insects are tricky. They can enter through the smallest cracks and openings in your home, so it’s crucial to check corners, gaps, gutters, foundations, and small holes where they can squeeze through.
How Bedbugs Enter Unnoticed
More often than not, we unintentionally bring bedbugs into our homes. For example, when we collect laundry, leave backpacks or bags outside, or visit places where these insects are present, we can unknowingly carry them back indoors.
