Nowadays bedbugs have become a very common thing in most homes in Canada. Quite often people do not realize that they exist in their home. Since they can be rarely seen during daylight and even at night too, they remain hidden under the mattress. They will come out only when you are sleeping and the lights are usually switched off.
