They can remain on the mattress anyone, bedding and furniture.
What are they? They are called lectularius Cimes in entomology. They are flat oval with reddish-brown insects. Their sizes range from 4 to 5 mm or 1 / 8 to 3 / 16 inch. They have small wings that are nocturnal creatures that sleep during the day and feed at night on especially in the first part of the morning when people are sleeping tight.
