The risk of bed bugs in hotels
Since the bed bug resurgence of the 1990s, bed bugs in hotel and motel rooms are unfortunately common. For one thing, bed bugs never miss meals in hotel rooms. Even if a room is vacant for a day or two, they can access different rooms through shared walls.
We recommend always reading reviews and searching for mentions of bed bugs before booking hotel accommodations. Also, once you get there, check the mattress and furniture in the room. Lastly, elevate your suitcase or put it in the bathtub out of the reach of bed bugs.
