Bedbug is coming back to some of the hotels.  As hotelier, we need to make sure that our rooms are clean.  Even though the bedbugs do not carry any contagious disease, however, there might be other bugs out there if we do not do a good job.  Here are some of the steps taken to protect yourself. 

• Travelers beware: Thoroughly inspect your hotel room before unpacking. Look behind headboards and around the seams of upholstered furniture. Pull back sheets and inspect mattresses for dark brown or red spots.

• Be prepared: Bring a small flashlight to inspect your room and plastic bags to protect luggage during your stay. Elevate your suitcases on a rack away from the bed and wall.

• Examine your luggage: After your trip, closely inspect bags and clothes before bringing them into the house for storage. Vacuum suitcases while still outside as an extra precaution.

• Wash your clothes: Whether worn or not, wash all of your clothes (preferably in hot water) to prevent possible infestations.

• If you find bugs: Seal luggage and other items in plastic bags, then expose the packages to heat. If you suspect a bed bug infestation, call a licensed pest professional.
