I don’t know how large a one euro coin is, but even assuming it’s as tiny as the tiniest coins we have here (15mm in diameter), those bedbugs are still terrifyingly huge! Now, having looked up how large a 1€ coin is (23.25mm), and estimating from the image, those bedbugs are around 5mm long!
… I thought they’re huge, but having looked things up, it’s right about average. I thought they’re usually much smaller than that over here though (roughly 1mm in length). I probably have had the good luck of never having seen a bedbug in my life. Cockroaches though, are a normal part of life around here, hehe.
From my experience, years ago, they are nowhere near as big (closer to 1/5 of a normal finger nail), and they feel like your own personal biblical plague. So no recommendation from me.
I’ve just imagined a colony of them just chilling underneath my mattress and noped out of it.
You can’t even “deprive them of food” like one would address cockroaches and rats (like secure and seal the hell out of any food, make sure that food crumbs are properly disposed of, etc) because we are their food. Is there even a benefit to having them around, because if there isn’t, we probably should just eradicate them.
