Best Answer

Yes, bedbugs apparently feed on anybody. Clean people are just as likely to be a bedbug's meal as are filthy people. But people are different as to how they react to being bitten by bedbugs. Some show virtually no marks where bedbugs have fed off them, many come out in little red marks resembling mosquito bites but usually in lines of three, while others come out in very large ugly looking rashes or lacerations over large areas of their skin, usually on their back or limbs.

This may be a bad answer: Nobody knows, but Bedbugs are classified as parasites, and have evolved to feed on human blood (VAMPIRES!)

Possibly, the answer is that their purpose is to live a changed life, as they have evolved to feed on humans.
