Bed bugs are most often found in or around your bed. But did you know, bed bugs travel and can be found just about anywhere? They are small and therefore capable of hiding just about anywhere. 

Experts at hide and seek, here are the 5 unexpected places you can find bed bugs.

 

1. Electrical outlets 

2. Books  

3. Behind wallpaper

4. Stuffed animals

5. Picture frames 

 

Of course, if you suspect that you may have bed bugs, you should also inspect your furniture, bags, purses, suitcases, clothing and the bottoms of your shoes.  Use a detection monitor as a handy tool to aid in identifying infestations.
