Bed bugs are parasitic insects that feed on blood typically at night. They get that blood from humans or animals. You might not see any during the day because of their being nocturnal. They can hide well like in a small crack or inside the seam of a mattress. An adult bed bug can range from 3/16 to 1/4 inch long. It's pretty repulsive.

That’s the smallest amount of homeless people since Japan started recording the data in 2003, according to the article. Denver has at least three times that many homeless people.
