dorsoventrally and this particular feature allows them to hide in narrow spaces such as into cracks and crevices When unfed they are pale yellow or brownish in colour but after a full blood meal they take a darker uniform mahogany brown colour Bedbugs have piercing mouthparts formed into a proboscis used to pierce the hosts skin They have three pairs of legs that are slender but welldeveloped and with efficient tarsal claws for clinging on to the host during feeding.
