First of
all a bed bug is a tick, a parasite that lives of the
blood of animals and occasionally people. They are nocturnal
creatures, who seek out warm places to hide and rest
and come out only occasionally to hunt their prey hence the need for bed bug control is limited.
There are probably trillions of trillions of them around
in nature, and in actual fact the proportion of them
that actually make the move into the big time of a domestic
environment is probably minute.
Most of them live in nature in fields and live off cattle
and wild animals. They cannot be described as bed bugs
as they have never seen a bed, or a couch or a carpet.
The point is that bed bugs cannot be described as bad,
because they are only doing what nature has taught them
to do.
That is to feed of what they can, how they can in order
to survive and multiply. I am sure that if we ever met
a bed bug and were capable of having a form of conversation
with it, we would discover that it is not a bad insect and not necessarily one to have to control to a great extent.
It is only doing something that comes to him instinctively.
It does not enjoy causing pain or suffering, it simply
doesn’t know any better! |
