Tsikidzi are bedbugs in English. These small, flat, reddish-brown insects often hide inside mattresses, furniture, clothes, and tiny cracks in walls or floors. Bedbugs feed on people's blood, usually at night when everyone is sleeping. Their bites leave itchy red spots on the skin, causing irritation and discomfort.
Bedbugs spread quickly and easily. They can travel from place to place with their luggage, clothes, or used furniture. Although bedbugs do not spread diseases, their bites can cause allergic reactions or skin infections if scratched. It is hard to remove them once they appear in someone's home, and professional treatment may be necessary.
Signs of bedbugs include blood stains on sheets, tiny dark spots on mattresses, and a strong, musty smell in rooms with many of these insects. Cleaning regularly, washing clothes and bedding in hot water, vacuuming often, and sealing cracks or openings all help control bedbugs.
When bedbugs become a serious problem, pest control experts usually recommend chemical or heat treatments. Regular inspection and prompt action help keep homes clean and free of these unpleasant insects.
