Flying Bedbugs

26 Dec 2011

Posted by Joseph Coupal

I though for a second I had stumbled onto a freak of science. One that would set the entomological world on its ear!!! A FLYING BEDBUG!!!

I was doing a bedbug inspection at a housing authority when something caught my eye. It was a dead bedbug caught on a strand of spider web. For a second it had the appearance of flying. Needless to say bedbugs can’t fly, nor jump for that matter. It was worth grabbing a video of it though!
