- in mattress and pillow seams, in the grooves of furniture, in the upholstery of the sofa, under the mattress;
- in the closet, under it and in the cracks between the closet and the wall;
- under skirting boards, near outlets;
- in the computer keyboard, in the system unit, vacuum cleaner, monitor;
- on the backs of wall paintings, clocks, photo frames.
Although they parasitize on humans, they do not live on his body or in his hair, due to their developed instinct for self-preservation. These insects lead a typical predatory lifestyle, they determine when the prey is sleeping, and only then attack it. And the rest of the time they hide from humans in dark and hard-to-reach places.
