Bedbugs: The Ultimate Nightmare
If you’ve ever suffered from bedbugs, you know how frustrating and stressful they can be. Hotels, especially the budget-friendly or well-worn ones, can sometimes have bedbugs hiding out in places you wouldn’t predict—like mattresses, headboards, and even behind the curtains. These sneaky pests love to hitch a ride on your belongings, especially anything cloth or fabric like suitcases, backpacks, and clothes.
Now, here’s where the bathtub comes in. Bedbugs usually hang out in cozy areas where they can easily access people, so they tend to stick around the bed or furniture in the room. A smooth, cold surface like the bathtub? Not exactly their favorite spot. Putting your luggage in the bathtub when you first enter your room gives you a opportunity to thoroughly inspect the room for any signs of bedbugs without worrying about your stuff being invaded.
