Bed Bugs = Big Ick!


Bed Bugs

Bed bugs seem to be a topic on the rise. With all my travels in various parts of the world I have never once encountered bed bugs over the years. I guess I should consider myself lucky, but then again I always do my homework on hotels before I arrive. Tripadvisor.com is immensely helpful in knowing where to and not to stay. I think the best defense against poor accommodations is doing your homework (or using a reputable travel agent to find you the best accommodations within your budget). If you are concerned a hotel might have bedbugs you can always check the sheets and you will see evidence of them. And you don't want to put luggage on the bed where potential bed bugs could hop a ride home with you. Check out some horror stories and preventative measures at the article link:
