Frequent travellers are at genuinely higher risk of encountering bed bugs, but a few consistent habits significantly reduce that risk.
Before You Travel
- Check reviews for any recent bed bug mentions where possible
- Pack a small torch for quick checks on arrival
- Consider using a hard-shell suitcase, which offers fewer hiding spots
While You're There
Check the mattress seams and headboard on arrival, keep luggage off the bed and floor, and avoid unpacking directly into drawers if you're at all unsure.
When You Get Home
Unpack straight into the wash where possible, and inspect your luggage closely, including seams and linings, before putting it away.
