Do you own a property that you rent out via platforms like Airbnb & VRBO? Then you will know how much cleanliness matters. Your reputation is staked on the fact that your premises are clean, welcoming, modern, and fresh. The problem is that such properties can become prone to issues with bed bugs. If you have bed bugs in your Airbnb & VRBO property, then you could have serious trouble with guests.
People do not want to stay somewhere that they might be bothered by bed bugs. These pests can become a serious problem, biting regularly and leaving your guests with a poor quality of sleep. At BBE, it is our job to offer a comprehensive solution to help you get rid of bed bugs in Airbnb & VRBO properties. With our years of experience in dealing with bed bugs, though, we can get rid of this issue for you ASAP.
The last thing you need on your property is bed bugs. Even one guest suffering from bed bugs could seriously damage your reputation as a business. Bed bugs could stop other guests from wanting to stay with your premises, or they could encourage others to leave negative reviews. This can be extremely harmful to your Airbnb & VRBO business, and therefore, you should take action right away.

There are many ways to combat the blight of bed bugs, but only a few solutions in-use today are actually effective. While many swear by using treatments like chemical treatment or over-the-counter preventative solutions, these rarely, if ever, work. To get rid of bed bugs in the most efficient manner possible, you need access to a proven form of bed bug removal – heat treatment. What is heat treatment for bed bugs?
At BBE, we use a heat treatment solution known as Heat Assault. Heat Assault is the market-leading solution; one of the most powerful and effective systems around. By safely increasing the temperature of your property until is it unbearable for bed bugs, heat treatment works because it kill bed bugs of all ages. Other treatments might only impact the adults or those caught in the crossfire; heat kills every bug.
This is vital because bed bugs can replicate at dizzying speeds. Even killing off 90% of an infestation is not enough, purely because bed bugs find ways to reproduce so quickly. This means that your property can use ineffective treatments and have the same problem return within weeks. At BBE, we promise a minimum of 60-days freedom from bed bugs in your property once we start to use heat treatment.
The first step to getting rid of bed bugs is to have your property inspected by bed bug specialists. You need a company that knows what to look out for; even the simplest symptoms of a bed bug infestation can be enough to confirm you have a problem on your hands. At BBE, we provide inspections for all commercial premises and businesses – including Airbnb & VRBO properties.
To start off, we will search your property to look for any potential signs of bed bugs. The most common signs that your Airbnb & VRBO hosting is impacted by bed bugs will include the discovery of:
Even spotting one of these signs can be a clear sign that your Airbnb & VRBO has a bed bug problem. Once we find any of these signs of a potential infestation, we will get to work on clearing the matter up. The sooner we can see these issues, the quicker we can get to work on clearing them up once and for all. However, by evaluating your Airbnb & VRBO property for bed bugs, we can ensure our services are needed.
Once we have discovered bed bugs, we need to take action to get rid of them as quickly as possible. To do this, we use a proven range of solutions and services. We have a five-step program that we use that we know is great for getting rid of bed bugs of all infestation volumes. Generally, the five-step process that we use after discovering the bed bugs will include the following:

You can try, but prevention is almost impossible. Bed bugs absolutely love Florida due to the humid weather, high heat, and great population density. As such, they find it very easy to move from one property to the next. When you find that your property has bed bugs, the issue is almost impossible to prevent. Sadly, since you run an Airbnb & VRBO, you probably have lots of guests arriving.
Guests and visitors are the most common reason that bed bugs enter your property. However, they could easily make an entry into your home from various locations. This includes next-door businesses, someone bringing them in unwittingly, or simply bad luck as bed bugs make their way into your property. One thing to note, too, is that bed bugs can fit through even tiny hairline cracks in your building.
This is why we often receive calls from otherwise immaculate, high-caliber Airbnb & VRBO property owners. Bed bugs do not care about the property conditions; they only care that there is a steady supply of blood for them to feast upon. As such, you should not worry about what bed bugs say about your Airbnb & VRBO: they are as likely to settle into a dirty household as they are an impeccably cared for property.
Prevention is difficult, if not impossible, due to how mobile and resilient the bed bug is. For that reason, you should focus on stopping them from becoming a serious issue in your property.
Yes, they are – to your reputation. While bed bugs ‘only’ bite people, they leave a negative experience for any guest staying with your business. They will not appreciate being bitten when they are sleeping. Any guest who finds bed bugs will immediately assume that your property is in poor condition. This makes them likely to leave negative reviews, which can be catastrophic to your reputation.
You also might find in more serious situations that someone wishes to hold your business legally responsible. As such, you will find that you need to take short-term rental insurance simply to avoid someone holding you legally liable for the presence of bed bugs in your business. This is especially likely if someone suffers an allergic reaction to the bed bug bites – which can happen.
So, bed bugs can potentially ruin your business if you allow the problem to get worse. There are also the consequences of having to close any Airbnb & VRBO that you own while the issue is being resolved. That hurts you financially and reputationally, which is why bed bugs should be a priority for you. Avoid having to cancel reservations by taking action and facing the problem head-on.
At BBE, we know that it can be tough to face up to a problem involving bed bugs on your property. It can make you doubt your Airbnb & VRBO and wonder if you should close down for good. Thankfully, this does not have to be the case: with BBE here to assist, the problem can come to an end.

Make sure that your cleaning team goes into overdrive move after every guest. Look for any cracks, crevices, or gaps in the walls and flooring.
Try and put in place policies that avoids luggage being left on beds; use luggage racks to help keep luggage that might contain bed bugs from being left on your beds
