What Is a Kissing Bug?
3. Habitat
As mentioned, the kissing bug is found mainly in the middle to lower regions of the American continent. People in the United States will rarely find the bug living in their homes. Depending on the location, however, it can still be found living outside where there is suitable shelter.
The kissing bug will otherwise tend to live in the same shelter as its source of food. This means that they are often found in stables and chicken coops and similar. South of the United States, the bugs are more likely to be found in peoples’ houses, and this means that people are more likely to be a source of food.
