What are bed bugs?

Bed bugs are small, oval shaped, wingless insects. The bugs are about the size of apple seeds. The eggs are white, and are found in clusters. The eggs are about the size of a pin head. 

The federal government needs to take concrete steps to deal with an outbreak of bed bugs that is affecting workers in federal buildings across Canada.
