Bed Bugs During The Holidays

It’s that time of the year again. Holiday traveling for business, pleasure, family and adventure. This traveling results in many different hotel rooms, air bnb’s, hostels, condos being checked into, and most importantly, many different beds being slept in, all over the world. What you might not know is that you might have a bit extra in your carry-on that you never expected. We’re talking about bed bugs. Once associated with unclean seedy motel rooms, bed bugs are unfortunately somewhat common in “nice” hotels. This has led to a rise in unwitting travelers transporting bed bugs in their luggage or clothing and unwittingly infesting their home or business, and vice versa. Bed bugs are challenging pests to control. They hide in many tiny places, so inspections and treatments must be thorough. Expert Pest Solutions has the training and experience to offer expert bed bug control solutions to eradicate current infestations and help prevent future infestations.

Holiday Travel Bed Bugs

During the daytime, bed bugs prefer to hide close to where people sleep. Their flattened bodies enable them to fit into tiny cracks-especially those associated with mattresses, box springs, bed frames, and head boards. When you check into your hotel room, place your luggage into the bathroom. Bed bugs are not a fan of the bathroom. They don’t like the tile floors, and there aren’t many places for them to hide. Keep your luggage there while you check out the bedroom for a quick inspection.
