Abstract
Oeciacus vicarious bed bugs were collected from 32% of Hirundo rustica nests and 83% of Petrochelidon pyrrhonota nests on bridges in western Colorado in December 1984. A total of 409 bugs (158 adults and 251 juveniles) were counted in 47 nests, two months after the hosts had departed for the winter.
