7 Steps for Bug Free Hotel Stay

2. Inspect the bed

3. Inspect the curtains

4. Inspect the furniture

5. Wash clothes before going home

6. Dealsuitcase

7. Keep away from chamber bag

Step 1 - Using darn rack.

The first thing to do after leaving the room is a metal luggage cart and put your luggage on it.

Just in case there are bugs in the room, the last thing I want to do is throw your luggage on the bed and leave them in your suitcase and take them with you!

Step 2 - Look before you leap.

Sure is tempting to jump on the bed after several hours of travel, but takeone minute and do a quick inspection.

Remove the bed covers and pillows and sheets and look for bed bugs or signs of their presence, as you go.

Step 3 - Make sure the window treatments.

They are often on the curtains to give them a very thorough search of more. Pay particular attention to seams, because that's where they hide.

Step 4 - Looks like they have supplied the room.

The decor is a favorite with uninvited guests that we are talking of giving allmost beautiful furniture. Pull out drawers and looking through the cracks.

Pulling a pillow or two, and so are we.

Step 5 - It is not your mother tell you not to take hitchhikers?

Bed bugs are notorious hitchhikers and often "stop" on your clothes and luggage. Stop at a laundromat on the way home and wash clothes in hot water, if possible, dry high heat for 20 minutes.

Step 6 - Clean your bags before puttingaway.

Before you pack, clean it with alcohol or use a non-toxic insecticide to kill all bed bugs left behind.

Step 7 - Do not put your luggage under the bed.

Keep your bags in the garage or basement or away from your bedroom and as much as possible. Just in case you made a house of unwanted guests that you missed.

Following these steps will help you avoid bed bugs on hotel and travel with peace of mind. Enjoy your trip!
