Take Time to Inspect the Room
I always use the bathtub trick as part of my hotel check-in routine. Here’s what I do: the moment I walk into the room, I toss my luggage in the tub and then give the place a good once-over. I start by pulling back the bed sheets and inspecting the mattress for any signs of bedbugs. This might seem like overkill, but it’s one of those things that you’ll be grateful for later if you catch anything suspicious early.
Check areas like:
- The mattress seams
- The headboard and nearby furniture
- Behind picture frames and curtains
It’s a Simple Hack That Works
I get it—the idea of sticking your suitcase in the bathroom may feel weird at first. But after doing it a few times, it’s become a habit that brings me peace of mind every time I travel. Knowing that my luggage is guarded against bedbugs, dirt, and random accidents? Totally worth the extra effort.
Next time you examine a hotel, try this hack and see how it feels. You’ll have a cleaner, safer space for your belongings, and if nothing else, you’ll avoid the stress of bringing bedbugs back home.
