ABSTRACT The global resurgence of bed bugs ( Cimex lectularius L. and hemipterus [F.]) over the past 25 years has presented significant challenges to pest management industry, with insecticide resistance as a leading cause control failures. This review provides synthesis bug research from 2018 present, highlighting profiles, mechanisms, strategies. Resistance pyrethroids, neonicotinoids, organophosphates, carbamates, other insecticides is widespread, documented cases metabolic (cytochrome P450s, esterases, glutathione S‐transferase ABC transporters), target site insensitivity (point mutations in voltage‐gated sodium channel genes [ kdr ], paralogous acetylcholinesterase gene p‐Ace ), GABA receptor rdl ]), penetration (cuticular thickening), symbiont‐mediated resistance. paper also reviews effective options against insecticide‐resistant bugs, including mixtures synergists, entomopathogenic fungi Beauveria bassiana physical methods such heat treatment, desiccant dust, fumigation. Additionally, novel approaches, RNA interference baits, provide new directions but require further research. Lastly, socio‐economic disparities affect management, especially lower‐income communities.
