[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bed bugs can be a $10,000 problem. If I were you, I would scrap your suitcase in a dumpster and drop your clothes off at the dry cleaners, and when you get home, throw your outfit immediately in a very, very hot and long wash cycle. Taking hitchhikers home isn't worth the risk. Did you check tripadvisor - do a search of your hotel name and "bed bugs" to see if there are any reports on there. Also, check www.bedbugregistry.net. At the very least, I would demand that they move you into another room tonite. Good luck![/quote] I would amend this advice to leave items in your car on several hot sunny days. Then do the above.[/quote] I don't think a car can get hot enough inside - I think it needs to be like 120+ degrees. My pest guy says ditch the suitcase or get it drycleaned (I wouldn't even attempt drycleaning it) and dryclean the clothes or throw them all in the washer in your hottest cycle immediately. I never had the problem, but my cousin experienced them in a hotel and that was my guy's advice to her.[/quote]
