Bed Bug Infestations and Control Practices in China: Implications for Fighting the Global Bed Bug Resurgence

The bed bug resurgence in North America, Europe, and Australia has elicited interest in investigating the causes of the widespread and increasing infestations and in developing more effective control strategies. In order to extend global perspectives on bed bug management, we reviewed bed bug literature in China by searching five Chinese language electronic databases. We conducted telephone int...

Human Odorant Reception in the Common Bed Bug, Cimex lectularius Abbreviated title: Human Odorant Reception in the Common Bed Bug

Transcriptomics of the Bed Bug (Cimex lectularius)

BACKGROUND Bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) are blood-feeding insects poised to become one of the major pests in households throughout the United States. Resistance of C. lectularius to insecticides/pesticides is one factor thought to be involved in its sudden resurgence. Despite its high-impact status, scant knowledge exists at the genomic level for C. lectularius. Hence, we subjected the C. lectu...

Ability of bed bug-detecting canines to locate live bed bugs and viable bed bug eggs.

Detector dogs are useful for locating bed bugs because they use olfaction rather than vision. Dogs were trained to detect the bed bug (as few as one adult male or female) and viable bed bug eggs (five, collected 5-6 d after feeding) by using a modified food and verbal reward sys...
