When we think of creepy crawlies, we might think of a variety of different things. You might think of animals such as snakes, roaches, or spiders. However, we guarantee you’ve never seen anything quite like this before.

We have two words for you – bed bugs. We think that pretty much says it all, but if it doesn’t, let’s dive a little deeper. No one wants to hear they have bed bugs! Just nasty to have them. However, when we hear of them, we probably imagine tearing the cover down and having an inspection to find a few under there. Well, we think you might be shocked at just how many of these suburban homes are found under their mattresses in the video below.

At the start of this YouTube newscast, we are taken to suburbia, a place where there are nice home developments in a few of Arizona’s well-known cities, Sun City and Scottsdale. The reporter starts by announcing two separate disturbing cases of bedbugs. We say disturbing because of the amount of bedbugs there were. Keep reading.

The first case of bed bugs took place in Sun City, Arizona. There were thousands of bed bugs that were living underneath a king-sized mattress. We warn you that this image the pest control company shared is quite nasty. There are so many that they are smushed into the mattress, and hundreds of them are dead.

The second case of bed bugs was in Scottsdale, Arizona. The pest control company said this one was much worse because the bed bugs were over an inch deep on the floor! The CDC reported that the best way to know whether you have bedbugs is to keep up with regular inspections.

How Small is a Bed Bug?

We know bed bugs are small, but let’s find out just how small! Bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) of the family Cimicidae can be found quite literally all over the world. We see them in Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Central America, Eurasia, Europe, North America, and South America.

These creepy crawlies are only 5-7 millimeters in length and about 4.5 millimeters in height! To put this into perspective, this isn’t even half an inch.
