They have got brown colour that can be turned to reddish brown colour when they consume food. Nymphs and non adult bed bugs are exception to this as they have got either whitish or gold colour. Flat tops and oval shaped body are enough for their descriptions. They require blood of host and their semi transparent bodies reflect dark patches of red colour which is the indication of their blood sucking habits. They are unable to fly as they do not have wings to do the same. They target crevices or small cracks for hide out.
