Bedbug, SEM
Bedbug. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the underside of a bedbug (Cimex sp.). Adult bedbugs bodies are flattened, oval, and wingless, with microscopic hairs that give them a banded appearance. They feed on the blood of warm-blood animals, including humans. Bedbugs are generally only active at night, hiding in crevices in walls and furniture and in bedding during the day. Although they do not transmit disease, their saliva can cause itchy swellings on the skin. Magnification: x10 when printed 10 centimetres tall

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of a bedbug, captured through a scanning electron microscope. The image reveals the underside of an adult bedbug, displaying its flattened and oval-shaped body. What makes this insect truly fascinating is its banded appearance, created by microscopic hairs that adorn its exoskeleton. Bedbugs are notorious blood feeders, targeting warm-blooded animals including humans. Although they do not transmit diseases directly, their saliva can cause itchy swellings on the skin. These nocturnal creatures prefer to remain hidden during daylight hours, seeking refuge in crevices within walls, furniture, and bedding. The magnification level used for this print allows us to appreciate the minute details of this pest's anatomy. With a 10x magnification when printed at 10 centimeters tall, we can observe every aspect of its wingless body structure and examine each leg with precision. This photograph serves as a reminder of the biological diversity that exists even within our own homes. It highlights both the beauty and complexity found in nature's smallest creatures while also shedding light on potential household pests that may disrupt our daily lives.
