One of the easiest ways that people pick up bed bugs <\/a>is when they travel.\u00a0 Hotels and motels are a hot-bed for bed bug activity because of the constant turn-over of people that come and go from that environment.<\/p>\n

Bed bugs<\/a> are tiny, reddish brown, insects that can fit into the space on the top of a screw. Despite their name, bed bugs can be found in a variety of locations throughout a hotel room, not just in the bed.\u00a0 Consumers should take precautions and look for bed bugs when they first enter any hotel or motel room.\u00a0 You should always look for a bed bug, their discarded skin (exoskeleton), feces, and blood stains before you decide to stay in any room.\u00a0 If you find bed bugs, or tell-tale signs of their presence upon your inspection, you should contact the hotel management immediately and request another room located far from the infested one or transfer to a new hotel.<\/p>\n
