Insomnia and sleeplessness
One of the most reported effects of a bedbug infestation is sleeplessness. When a bed bug infestation affects the bed area, what was once a safe place has now become terrifying. Sleep deprivation can have a variety of physiological effects that include, but are not limited to, sore muscles, depression, confusion, decreased concentration, headaches, irritability, slowed reaction times, and delirium.
