As you know, bed bugs feed exclusively on blood. This pest has been growing a lot in recent years, especially in the United States. Today we want to share some of the best bed bug life cycle pictures so you know more about this pest.

The first image clearly shows how the bed bug cycle is, which we will explain below.

There are several factors that influence the spread of this pest. One of the main factors is that bedbugs have become resistant to some pesticides. Another influencing factor is that bedbugs can live without feeding for even a year. They are also difficult to detect. Usually, when they are detected, there is already a certain degree of infestation.

In the second image, we can see the complete cycle of bedbugs. The image shows the size of the bedbugs in each of their phases. In addition, it is mentioned that adult bedbugs can last a long time without feeding, while nymphs must be fed every week.

The life cycle of bedbugs begins with mating. Bedbugs (Cimex lectularius) mate by a system known as traumatic insemination. This insemination consists of the perforation of the female’s abdominal cavity by the male through a lanceolate penis, which subsequently injects the sperm into the wound produced.

Once the sperm is deposited, it goes to the circulatory fluid, the hemolymph, from where it travels to the ovaries. Females can lay up to 250 eggs in their lifetime.

During its lifespan, a bed bug will go through the following stages:

Eggs (1 mm).

1st stage nymph (1.5 mm).

2nd stage nymph (2 mm).

3 rd nymph stage (2.5 mm).

4th stage nymph (3 mm).

5th stage nymph (4.5 mm).

Non-fed adult female.

Non-fed adult male.

The following image is made with real photographs of bedbugs. The sizes and colors in the different stages are clearly observed.

Young bedbugs (also called nymphs) are generally smaller, translucent, or whitish-yellow in color. Older and adult nymphs are reddish-brown. Nymphs go through five molts before reaching maturity. If they have not been recently fed, they can be almost invisible to the naked eye due to coloration and size. Although they are similar to adults, they are smaller and not yet sexually mature.

The following image shows a detailed drawing of the bed bug life cycle.

Bedbugs are flat-looking when not fed. However, when a bed bug consumes a meal of blood, it bloats. The abdomen swells to consume as much blood as possible. If you crush a recently fed bloated bed bug, it will leave a large bloodstain. However, as you slowly digest your food, there will be less blood to come out. Bedbugs don’t stay bloated for long after feeding. They begin the digestion process immediately.
