The Risk of Bed Bugs in Hotels
With a rise in global travel comes the rise of bed bugs in hotels. Unfortunately, hotels are a prime location for bed bugs. For one, bed bugs are never short of a meal in hotel rooms. Even if a room is vacant for a day or two, they can easily spread to another room. Bed bugs inside one hotel room can quickly lead to an infested hotel.
To avoid picking up bed bugs in a hotel, always do your research and read reviews. Additionally, check the mattress and furniture in the room. Lastly, store your suitcase above ground or in the bathtub, away from the reach of bed bugs.
Bed Bugs and Dorm Rooms
Just like hotels, bed bugs love dorm rooms. With so many people in one building, bed bugs can quickly spread throughout student housing units. The last thing a college student has time for is bed bugs, which is why it’s important to always report the early signs of an infestation if noticed. When returning home for the holidays or summer vacation, ensure your college student’s suitcase is thoroughly cleaned before storing it away.
Why Anyone Can Get Bed Bugs
Bed bugs do not discriminate and will infest anywhere they can feed. Even worse, they can go a whole year without a blood meal! Bed bugs are opportunists and will hitch a ride to new areas, where a new infestation can grow. Even if you think you aren’t at risk of getting bed bugs, it’s important to know the signs of an infestation and to take cautionary measures to prevent them.
