Bed bugs (2)

2.How to diagnose by yourself you are bitten by bed bugs or something else?
Usually what we need to do is to distinguish the bite of bed bugs from those from mosquitoes. If you are bitten by a mosquito, there will be a single blotch and it won't be itchy after one day, in most cases. However, if you are bitten by a bed bug, it will be very different: The number of blotches will vary from three to six or seven, but definitely more than one. Also, it will be annoying you for two or three days. Those blotches will get together into clusters or align into a straight line but the size will be generally the same as a bite by a mosquito. To sum up, we can judge we are experiencing bed bugs or mosquitoes with two standards, the number and the pattern of those bites. Bed bugs make clusters or a line of bites while mosquitoes make only one each time.
