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.

∙ 12y agoThe eggs are probably almost invisible to the naked eye, it was only when they hatched that I was aware of them in my property. I was only fully aware of them once they were 'grown' [in the adult stages and when they had already become a very unwelcome resident in my property!]... but once I was sure of what they were, I was able to research etc..the smallest I have seen is when they are in the very early stages..They are white/clear in colour, very tiny when they start out..they look a bit like tiny white crabs
