Airbnb and other short-let properties share some of the same bed bug risks as hotels, with a few of their own considerations.
Why Short Lets Carry Genuine Risk
Frequent guest turnover, similar to hotels, means bed bugs can arrive with any guest's luggage, regardless of how clean or well-maintained the property is kept between stays.
Advice for Hosts
- Mattress and bed frame encasements as standard
- Quick visual checks during cleaning turnover
- A fast response plan for any guest reports
- A working relationship with a local pest controller
Advice for Guests
The same simple checks used in hotels apply here too — inspect the mattress seams on arrival, and keep luggage off the bed and floor where possible.
