Kinda looks like a tick?

Answer

Looks like a bed bug swollen with your blood. I dont want to scare you but youre going to need an exterminator...they are very hard to get rid of. And if there is one, usually there are many.

Answer

That's definitely a bed bug and they are extremely hard to get rid of without having to throw bed away

Answer

Well it's hard to say. I'm gonna call him dead lol. But since it was in your bed, just to be safe I would suggest to strip your bed and inspect it for bed bugs. Those little guys are making a comeback and don't care if your house is clean or dirty. They just come on in. Bug yours looks far to big to be a bed bug so I doubt it is. I tied to google search but only thing I saw that was kind of close was an ID this bug site and the only answer to the lady's post was not a bed bug. Don't think it's a tick either as they have 8 legs and if it was that fat it would have been dug into your skin.

Answer

Bed bugs 😭 im so so sorry they are so awful to deal with!!! Youll need to buy some bed bug mattress covers to smother them. And if you can afford it i would get an exterminator. If not, do research on how to get rid of them. Good luck!!

Answer

It's a bed bug we had them when we brought a second hand mattress. You can buy spray to kill them. Check your mattress and bed frame also bedside cabinets. we ended up throwing  away the whole bed and cabinets as they got in there and infested it.
