Bed bugs are parasitic insects that feed on blood. The term is used loosely to refer to any species of the genus Cimex, and even more loosely to refer to any member of the family Cimicidae. Wikipedia
LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — One bed bug found crawling across a book has led to officials confirming the presence of the bloodthirsty, resilient creatures at the L.A. Central Library.
There have been at least two separate sightings of lone bed bugs at the library – one on Aug. 9, crawling across a reference desk in the Science & Technology Department, and one on Labor Day, walking across a page of a novel a library patron had taken home, according to the L.A. Weekly.
