However, that does not mean you want to let them go if there is an infestation. Since they are one of the hardest species to eradicate, you must be intentional. Furthermore, they spread rapidly and are resistant to most insecticides.
To limit an infestation’s extent, prevent them from spreading in the first place. Generally, bed bugs spread through either passive or active movement. Therefore, they can be transmitted from site to site by your activity. For example, they may hide in your bedding, clothing, and luggage to hitch a ride. After they have hidden, they will go with you wherever you take them. Consequently, they can infest places such as motels, hotels, and rental properties.
After getting inside a building, they may not move to another building, but they will migrate. As such, it is not uncommon for bed bugs to spread from one room to another during the day. Nevertheless, they are incapable of flight, and they do not jump. Regardless, they can move along the walls, ceilings, wiring, and pipes.
