Adult bed bugs are generally reddish-brown (especially after feeding). They are a flattened oval shape and do not have wings. The insects have tiny hairs that give their bodies a striped or banded appearance. Adults can range from 4-5 mm long and 1-3mm wide when full grown. Nymphs, or baby bed bugs are generally lighter in color, and translucent. As the nymphs mature and moult, their color becomes darker.

When bed bugs are born they are translucent (clear/opaque) until their first blood meal. after that they turn the darker brown from the digested blood meal.
