This study examined the short and long term effects of long exposure to sub lethal temperatures on Cimex lectularius. Adult bed bugs and fifth instar nymphs were exposed to sub lethal temperatures, 34°C, 36°C and 38°C for 14 and 21 days with both constant and disrupted exposure. The treatments with constant exposures had lowest survival compared to the disrupted treatments. The two treatments with highest temperature had the lowest survival rate within the constant exposure treatments. Some mortality did occur in the 34°C as well. The treatments with disrupted exposure did not have as high mortality like the constant exposure treatments. Feeding abilities was reduced in the constant exposure treatments, but not in the disrupted treatments. ...
