Maybe you check the bounciness of the mattress, scope out the minibar or scan the bathroom to sniff the toiletries?<\/p>\n<p>Chances are, before you do any of that, you dropped your suitcase on the bed or the luggage rack. According to travel and hygiene experts, this common habit might be one of the worst mistakes made by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.newsner.com\/tag\/travel\/#google_vignette\">travelers<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of placing your suitcase on the bed or floor, there\u2019s one unexpected place that should be your go-to: the cold, hard, (hopefully) clean surface of the tub, which is the safest spot for your luggage.<\/p>\n<p>So, why is the bathtub the safest place for your suitcase? The answer is simple: bedbugs.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-breeding-grounds\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Breeding grounds<\/h2>\n<p>Hotel rooms, no matter how high-end or well-maintained, can be a breeding ground for these tiny pests, stowaways looking for a free ride to a new home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBedbugs are highly efficient hitchhikers. They can move quickly across a room and climb onto luggage or anything left on a bed or floor in just one night,\u201d writes pest control company,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.orkincanada.ca\/blog\/how-to-avoid-bed-bugs-while-travelling\/#:~:text=Survey%20the%20hotel%20room%20for,setting%20after%20you%20return%20home.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Orkin<\/a>. \u201cHotels are ideal homes for bedbugs because of the high guest turnover rate.

These bugs struggle to climb smooth surfaces, and since hotel bathrooms are typically cleaned more thoroughly than bedroom areas, your luggage is far less likely to come into contact with the pesky pests.<\/p>\n<p>Entomologist Katelyn Kesheimer, PhD, told\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rd.com\/article\/why-put-luggage-in-hotel-bathroom\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Reader\u2019s Digest<\/a>\u00a0that she always places her luggage in the bathroom while she examines the room, thoroughly, for bedbugs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnce I know it is clear, I bring my luggage out into the main room. But I never put it on the bed, just in case,\u201d Kesheimer said. \u201cA bathroom is the least likely place that bedbugs will be found in a hotel room due to the short amount of time that humans (the bedbugs\u2019 source of food) spend in the bathroom relative to the rest of the room.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-s-l-e-e-p\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">S.L.E.E.P.<\/h2>\n<p>When travelling, Orkin suggests using the acronym S.L.E.E.P. to avoid taking bedbugs home with you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Survey<\/strong>\u00a0the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.newsner.com\/tag\/hotel\/#google_vignette\">hotel<\/a>\u00a0room for signs of a bedbug infestation. Keep an eye out for dark, ink-like stains on bedding, the crevices of mattresses and box springs. Also, make sure you know what bedbugs look like at all life stages (eggs, newly hatched and adult).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lift<\/strong> and look in bedbug hiding spots like the mattress, box spring, bed skirt and other furniture, as well as behind baseboards, pictures and even torn wallpaper.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Elevate<\/strong>\u00a0luggage away from the bed and wall.

Also, clothes are more likely to pick up bedbugs when moved to closets or drawers, so avoid unpacking and live out of your suitcase.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Personal items:<\/strong>\u00a0In addition to being great hitchhikers, bedbugs are also masters at hiding. They have been known to hide in books, cloth toiletry kits and other non-metal personal items. Ensure your belongings are secured properly throughout your trip.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-no-food-no-problem\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">No food? No problem<\/h2>\n<p>It might seem like a lot of work but remember that bedbugs are extremely resilient and can live a very, very long time. \u201cThey can go months to over a year without a blood meal, so if left in a suitcase or on clothing, they can certainly survive and infest later on when there is access to food,\u201d says Kesheimer.<\/p>\n<p>While putting your suitcase in the bathtub might seem a bit odd, it can drastically reduce your risk of bringing home unwanted guests from your travels.<\/p>\n<p><strong>So, the next time you check into a hotel, skip the bed, forget the luggage rack, and let your suitcase sit in the tub.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>What travel tips do you have to help others avoid carrying bedbugs?
