Bed bugs have been around for ages and at one point in human history, they were not even considered a threat. One bed bug can lay up to 250 eggs and they virtually can be found anywhere.

In apartment buildings dealing with outbreaks can be more frustrating because even if you eradicate them from your home if another home is allowing them to thrive they can come back quickly.
