It’s true. Bats can bring bed bugs into your home. It’s not the most common way to get a bed bug infestation, but does happen.

One customer writes, “We have discovered bed bugs in our bed. I have been bitten for 3yrs. All the docters said I had eczema. I saw a bug in our bed and looked it up. I am horrified. We live in the Mountains the ceiling in our home is slatted pine planks. We are currently have a Bat problem as well can they be coming from them. Our home is a very open floor plan what do you suggest please help.”

There is actually several specific species of bed bug that feed primarily on bats. The Cimex hemipterus infests poultry and bats while the Leptocimex boutei feeds on bats and humans. The cimex pilosellus and the cimex popostrella prefer to feed solely on bats if possible.

Bats can make several entrances into your home. The most common way is through the fire place. They will nest their quite often, especially if you do not use the fire place often. If these species of bed bugs hitch a ride into your home via a bat, they will not hesitate to feed on you and your family if they are hungry and left behind without a bat host.
