Waikiki – Bed bugs have made thier way to the vacation hot spot of Waikiki, ruining a vacation for one New Jersey family. The family states that they found bed bugs as well as bed bug fecal stains on thier at the Waikiki Sunset hotel mattresses.
Bed bugs are said to have spread via worldwide travel, and here is one traumatic example of such a bed bug infestation. The family was immidiately moved to a new floor and compensated for thier stay, but claim that they are still suffering bedbug anxiety, and are unable to sleep through the night.
Bed bugs seem to be making a true comeback in Hawaii and may hitch rides to and from this tropical location through increased travel thoughout the US and the world. In fact in 2010, “a professional exterminator told Hawaii News Now his company was responding to three or four bed bug infestations a week on Oahu,” both in homes, hotels or even restaurants.
This reinforces the need to check your hotel for bed bugs and invest in bedbug travel protection prior to planning your next family vacation.
