Bed bugs are excellent at staying out of sight. They’re tiny, flat, and skilled at squeezing into tight spaces, often going undetected until the infestation grows. Knowing where to look can help you take early action.
Common Bed Bug Hiding Spots

Mattress Seams
Mattress Seams
The most common place bed bugs hide is in the seams, corners, and tags of your mattress. These areas are warm, undisturbed, and close to where you sleep.
Bed Frames and Outlets
