As the last post said bedbugs travel very well. My upcoming trip is covering a lot of miles and staying in several hotels of varying quality - hence I looked at the bed bug sites which whilst useful did not clear the issue with me.
Avoiding a hotel that has constant reports of bed bugs is good advice but you may well be the next person into a room where only the last person brought the little pests in - so no 100% guarantee.
I have decided to invest in some personal spray but am not sure how to avoid carrying them onto the next hotel in clothes or baggage - I am presuming there is a spray I can use on the case but what about clothes that are kept in hotel furniture?
A friend put their cases in the bathroom in each hotel they stayed in - does this really work?
What about carrying them on your clothing?
Any useful tips would be appreciated. I certainly will take precautions to not bring them 'home' i.e. strip off in garage etc.and put straight in washing machine, treat case before putting away etc.
