I actually never knew that the saying "dont let the bed bugs bite" actually meant you could have bed bugs. Well I was at work the other day and someone told me that. And now I'm a little nervous about sleeping with "bedbugs" I know if you wake up with bites and itch is a sign. But I just want to get the run down on them.

Are they dangerous to health?
How do you get them?
How do you know you have them?
&& I live by the woods, can I get them in the house just by that... or my outdoor cat bring them in?

Wikipedia: Bed Bugs answers your questions.

Bed Bugs.
Some information you might like to read, we have experts on pest control, hopefully they will add to this.

Bed bugs are also usually mites. They are attracted to dead skin on your sheets and their poop can make you sick. If you don't wash your sheets, pillowcase, and blanket offen you can get them, but if you do wash them then you shouldn't have much to worry about.
