i agree with staying at a better place but who ever knows?
maybe call the BBB in that area?
and you're right about them living anywhere. i read that too.

you can rent RV's but probably too expensive.
when do you go?

We leave at the end of May. We'll be staying in Indianapolis, IN and then Shelbyville, KY. I am researching and going to ask the hotels directly. I am bringing everything you guys are telling me too!

I remember hearing of a kit you could use to get rid of bedbugs. It included a little vaccum so you could get the seams of the mattress. But of course I can't remember what it was called...sorry!

I did find this link, though: http://bedbugregistry.com/

I plan to bring my own sheets, pillows and cover. BUT, that wont keep the bed bugs off if they are in the mattress! Plus, I plan to throw away these sheets and pillows so I don't bring anything home.

Anyone have advice on what they do? Is there a spray to kill anything on the bed if there is anything on the bed? I don't care of I don't see anything I am still freaking out about it. We're planning several hotel visits this year.

Thanks ahead of time!
If you contact the hotel ahead to tell them you have hyperallergenic problems they do a deep power clean.
The one thing is, you can see bed bugs in the seams on the mattress cracks, I would not sleep in it.
Also, if you are near sand, like a beach or Disney resorts that have sand beaches those sites carry a sand flea that bites and people mistake the bites for bed bugs.
