Follow these tips to ensure the pesky bed bug doesn't ruin your next trip
Check your hotel bed thoroughly for any signs of bed bugs
The dream: a trip abroad. The nightmare: bringing back a creepy, fast-breeding stowaway.
Bed bugs are tiny, flat, apple-seed-shaped insects that feed on your blood at night. They can be found anywhere – from dingy dives to luxury resorts – and spread by hitchhiking on the luggage of travellers.
Bed bugs don’t transmit disease, but their bites can be painful, and they can make you feel invaded in your own home. Use these travel tips to reduce your chances of returning with a nasty souvenir.
