avoid <strong>Bed</strong> Bug HiTCHHikers<br />

1. Avoid hotels with problems. Check bed bug registries<br />

online in advance of making a reservation. When you<br />

check in ask the hotel manager if it has a bed bug<br />

problem.<br />

2. Leave luggage outside the room. Perform a<br />

mini-inspection around the bed, check the mattress<br />

along the upper and lower seams. Check the<br />

headboard, bedside table, dresser and along<br />

the wall on the side of the bed.<br />

3. If signs of bed <strong>bugs</strong> are detected, request another<br />

room. Be sure to inform hotel management. You should<br />

inspect any new or different room you are offered.<br />

4. After your trip, if you suspect a problem, unpack<br />

luggage outdoors and inspect clothing. If there are<br />

signs of bed <strong>bugs</strong> throw everything into the dryer on<br />

the highest setting for 60 minutes, or the freezer for<br />

two weeks (for delicates) then wash or dry clean.<br />

Vacuum luggage thoroughly.<br />
