They can survive for at least five days at -10 ° C, but will die after 15 minutes of exposure at -32 ° C. They seem to have a high tolerance to desiccation, after living in low humidity at temperatures of 35-40 ° C, even after losing one third of their body weight.
The thermal death point for C. lectularius is quite high, 45 ° C, and to kill all the stages ( nymph , adult etc ) the life take 7 minutes of exposure at 46 ° C.
