COMPARISON OF BED BUG
Dimensions!
Video is slowed to 33% of actual speed. The subjects (Bed Bugs, their eggs, Carpenter Ants, and the Coin, are placed on a ceramic surface.
In this video you see an adult BedBug with a white egg protruding in it’s rear. Nearby you see a Canadian 5 cents coin and a dead, crumbled up Carpenter Ant.
You get a good idea of the dimensions of the BedBug. As well you clearly see the movements of the Bed Bugs. It is obvious that these Pests are NOT hard to see rather they can be hard to locate when hiding in components of our beds at the beginning of an infestation.
Towards the end of the movie you see BedBug moving above an egg that is moved by its legs. It so happens because the egg could not be cemented to the ceramic surface as it would have to the wooden or fabric elements of a typical bed.

SCENES FROM A MATTRESS
Tufts!
In this video you see in action the instinctive preferences of BedBugs for sunken surfaces. This is a scene of tuft of a mattress where the BedBug is crawling. Along the way you would notice white shiny eggs and black extruding excrement markings.
The BedBug is comfortable being in the sunken space. It is obvious as I am not able to nudge it with my finger on first few attempts. My finger was not able to come into contact with the BedBug as it was in the sunken space just next to the mattress tuft. After the nudging attempt is successful, the BedBug feels threatened and moves along the tufts rather than the open flat surface further away, but finally move perpendicular to the other side of the mattress.
