CAN THEY? yes. Do they tend to? no. While they CAN live anywhere that would/will safely harbor them, all accounts suggest that they are not attracted to houseplant. Nor do they prefer such places. If you're a indoor/tropical/house-plant enthusiast with a large or personally valuable collection, and are concerned about the possibility of a stray (/strays) bed bug in one of your plants during or prior to treatment...try one of the following:

1 part rubbing alcohol, to 2 parts water mix

-or-

Neem oil mix

Proceed to mist your beloved plants with one of the above solutions. ALWAYS be sure to use chemicals is well/properly ventilated areas. While moderate exposure to rubbing alcohol fumes is not dangerous or fatal, long term exposure can be unhealthy. ALWAYS err on the side of caution ! Lastly, some plant varities are more sensative to certain chemicals, so research collectible varities like Jewel Orchids etc prior to treatment.

Can bedbugs live in houseplants?

NO. Do not confuse bedbugs with garden bugs. They are completely different. Bedbugs normally live inside a home in or near to a bed. They do not live outside in a garden. Bedbug eggs usually get brought into a home in furniture or luggage. When the eggs in the furniture or luggage hatch, the bedbugs set up their base close to where some person sleeps at night, which is usually thereafter in or near somebodys bed inside that home. That is why they are called bedbugs
