Before you panic about bed bugs, though, keep the following tips in mind to stay calm.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t Assume You Have Bed Bugs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you see small, dark-colored bugs in your home, they\u2019re not necessarily <a href=\"http:\/\/npic.orst.edu\/pest\/bedbug\/start.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bed bugs<\/a>. Other pests, such as bat bugs, have a similar appearance to bed bugs. You can\u2019t tell from bite marks either. Spiders, some ants, and other pests can also leave bite marks on your skin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t Switch Sleeping Areas<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You might be tempted to sleep elsewhere if you wake up with bite marks or see <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allisonpest.com\/blog\/2017\/06\/21\/bed-bugs-move-to-the-number-2-spot-for-insurance-claims\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bed bugs<\/a> in your bedroom. However, keep in mind that bed bugs can follow you to other areas, causing a more widespread infestation. Use a bed bug mattress cover and clean your bed linens in hot water to protect yourself from additional bites.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t Toss Your Belongings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Throwing out furniture and other items that you think are infested could allow bed bugs to spread to other areas or to other people\u2019s residences.
