bed bugs
Tiny nocturnal bloodsuckers
Bed bugs are small, flat, reddish-brown insects that feed on human blood, typically at night.
They infest mattresses, furniture, and bedding, leaving itchy bites.
Notoriously difficult to eliminate, they spread through luggage, clothing, and secondhand furniture: The hotel had bed bugs.
Also spelled bedbug.
