Father's Day weekend is almost here! Have you picked up Dad's new grill set or backpack? Pre-COVID, the most popular gifts for dad were things he could use, like new ties and shirts or that shiny new toolset he's been eyeballing.

But since COVID, dads have been working remotely and don't have the use for all those new ties and dress shirts. Perhaps some new shorts or sweatpants are what your dad needs. Since Father's Day is during the warm summer months, many families will be out and about on vacation trips to celebrate or even a staycation weekend.

If you are taking Pop out of town, we can offer suggestions for keeping your belongings bedbug-free. Being observant has never been more helpful than checking into a hotel, motel, or Airbnb.

Heck, you can even make it a game if you have younger kids. Check the chart below for all the hiding spots.

Do you know what to do before settling into your hotel room?

First things first, do not bring your luggage into the hotel room. If you do, set them in the bathtub or shower while you thoroughly and closely inspect your mattress, bedding, bed frame, and bedside tables. You can also take our Travel Sized Bed Bug Spray and spray your luggage and room.

It may seem like much to do when just checking into your room(s). Still, this step is the most important to help ensure that you spot a problem early and keep yourself and anywhere these buggers love to hide safely.

How Do I Protect My Home From Bed Bugs?

Our free in-depth bed bug guide is a great place to start for information about bed bugs, where they come from, where they like to hide most, and, most importantly, how to treat your home for them!

If you suspect you have been exposed to bed bugs, be sure to inspect your bags before bringing them into your home. It only takes one to create a whole new infestation, so by taking some time to locate any hitchhikers and begin prompt treatment using an all-natural bed bug solution, you will be heading off a potentially larger problem down the line.

Our natural, plant-based Bed Bug Patrol Killer Spray provides an all-natural solution to infestations of bed bugs, as well as fleas, spiders, and other common indoor bugs. Our 100% natural solution is made in the USA. It relies on the power of natural ingredients like citric acid, clove oil, and peppermint oil to naturally deter these bugs from living in your furnishings and upholstery. Just spray our solution on affected surfaces twice per day, and it will get to work on exterminating your bed bugs and preventing their return. To keep you safe from bed bugs on your travels, arm yourself with our Bed Bug Blasting Travel Spray, which comes in a handy, TSA-approved travel-size bottle for your convenience.
