Bed bugs are small, reddish-brown insects that feed on the blood of humans and animals. They are often found in cracks and crevices in and around bedding, furniture, and other areas where people rest. While bed bugs are not known to transmit diseases, their bites can cause itching, irritation, and allergic reactions. Furthermore, bed bug infestations can lead to stress and anxiety. On the Gold Coast, a popular tourist destination with numerous hotels and accommodations, the risk of encountering bed bugs is ever-present.
