Can Bed Bugs Live in Cars?

It's not the first place people think to check, but bed bugs can occasionally end up in cars too.

Is It Actually Possible?

Bed bugs can survive in a car if introduced via luggage, clothing or furniture being transported, though a car's fabric seats and boot area are less ideal for them than a bedroom environment.

When This Is More Likely

• Transporting infested furniture in the vehicle
• Regularly carrying luggage from affected locations
• Giving lifts to someone with an active infestation
• Leaving infested items in the car for extended periods

What to Do If You're Concerned

A thorough vacuum of seats, seams and footwells, combined with checking for any physical signs, is a sensible first step — a professional can advise further if you remain concerned.
