- Some tourists staying at Las Vegas Strip resort hotels may have returned home with unwanted guests. Reports from the Southern Nevada Health District (SNHD) show inspectors found bed bugs over the last five months at several strip properties.
"Daily resort fees include bed bugs."
😂
😂😜
😂😂😂😂 added bonus
😂😂😂😂
In the past, housekeeping would come in every day and strip the bed and put clean sheets on and provide fresh towels. If they went back to this it might help the problem.
Agreed. It seems like this issue has risen with the lessening of cleaning services...
Thank management for that!
That would likely spread the infestation. Bed bugs aren't due to a lack of cleanliness. It's a challenging problem to fix and the visitors coming through make it incredibly difficult. Be diligent when you check in and check the room yourself
They still do. The only issue is that most people leave a don’t disturb sign on the door before heading out and they will not go. I stayed at Excalibur for 5 days last November and they cleaned every single day after the second day and that was because of the sign.
@@LaCallejera_xo Clean the room yes, I mean completely strip and clean sheet the beds including the comforter /duvet. There used to be huge linen carts up and down the halls. Now they make the bed and tidy but I don’t think complete linen changes are done daily anymore.
1. Luggage is Hard Case
2. Inside 2 LG zippered plastic bags. One clean clothes, other dirty
3. Citronella or bed bug spray
4. Bring your own sleeping bag to lay on the bed after a good spray on bedbug locations on the 1st checkin and keep Luggage in the Shower Tub except in uses.
5. Don't stay in a Vegas Strip Hotel
F that, they're 100 times better than garbage motels you find anywhere else, and much less bed bug activity. You dont have clue what ur talking about, hater. @@gzstayreal
Don’t go on vacation…
I have seen people mention to leave your luggage in the bathroom, why is that?
@@ROCBOYZGURLZbed bugs are on the cloth materials of the room (sheets, bed, carpet, curtains), bathrooms are smooth tile and porcelain etc, and usually are white so you’d be able to see them if you see anything
I’m sure the fans coming in from all over the world for F1 didn’t help.
Only from predominantly white countries
Damn shame paying all that money for those rooms and gotta deal with that bullshit , smh
Some resorts keep dogs trained to detect bedbugs. The dogs are very helpful when some guests try to bullshit their way out of paying hotel bills.
Every hotel will have some at some point. Hotel guest are the ones that bring it in.
You have had bed bugs in all these places for decades. Let’s be honest this city is not worth visiting especially at how much they charge. Here’s another hike on resort fees and you get free bed bugs.
@@anthonymartinez4307 "Waah, I'm too broke or too cheap to afford Vegas". That's all you had to write.
it is worth visiting bc vegas is an adult playground and no city like it. It is actually good value if youre smart.@@anthonymartinez4307
@@anthonymartinez4307Not true about the bedbugs, but you keep using that lie if it helps you.
I got severely bitten up by bed bugs twice on trips to Vegas with painful itchy red rashes I confirmed with dermatologist bed bug bites the hotel doesn't care when you inform them they reply they checked the room and didn't see anything I don't want to go back to Vegas again after the pain I went through and brought them home to my house infestation after :/
1. Encore
2. Venetian
3. Mirage
4. Excalibur
The ultimate souvenir😭
Some people call me crazy because I spray chemicals down everywhere when I have to stay in a hotel room. It is tough enough having to sleep in a foreign bed but I'll be damned if I wake up with a bunch of bites everywhere because the hotel was too damn cheap to get new mattresses every couple years and spray down the rooms after each guest!
Can you please tell me what kind of chemicals you use I’m going to Vegas next week
I definitely noticed the added spots floating around the screen. Almost made me wonder if there was a bedbug on my TV! Nice touch, but also don’t do that shit! 😹
The only bed bugs I know about are called by another name- Resort Fees!!!
You think thousands of people sleep in those bed from all over the world. The odds are high bed bugs are their. The maids need to inspect the rooms daily i doubt they do!!
You're right, they don't, because no one wants to work those jobs anymore, can't force people to work jobs they just don't want to do. I know people that work in these hotels, tell me all the time about the low staff issues, Alot of rooms just don't get cleaned, not enough manpower to get it all done. Hotel Owners don't want to shell out for more employees, and they have no problem with guests checking into fecal and urine smeared rooms.
those maids can't even speak English and you expect them to know what bed bugs are lol
I don’t think the problem is that they don’t know what bed bugs are, the problem is they do the bare minimum to get the room cleaner and onto the next victim.. I mean customer.
as someone that works in a hotel. People bring bed bugs in. hotels do not just put them in there.
and that makes good sense.....
there has been more than one case of cockroaches changing residents doing relocation......
roaches napping in boxes or luggage...wakes up in new home
As a person who has stayed at many hotels, bed bugs are the result of hotels NOT replacing OLD mattresses and not spraying chemicals down after each guest checks out. You cannot be cheap and keep the same old lumpy mattress year after year and blame people for you harboring bed bug infestations in the rooms!
and at the same time many of these infested casino hotels have jacked up their room fees, and still continue adding in all kinds of hidden fees along with ridiculous parking fees, yet can't seem to have enough money to professionally fumigate their rooms for bed bugs, and as far as know, i have yet to hear that any of these bed bug farms refunded their customers any amount back money for getting bit up in their hotel rooms, now can you imagine planning your vacation in las vegas, flying in from somewhere else, booking a room at one of these hotels, expecting to have a great time on vacation, only to get bit up from bed bugs in the room you rented, and when you contact management in regards to getting your money back so you can gamble on a different hotel not being infested, only to find out, the casino hotel management tells you no, no refunds and and no discounts, personally, i would never return to las vegas again and warn everyone i know to stay clear of las vegas,
Sadly, people will come back, the gambling bug bites harder than any bed bug. You'd be surprised what people will put up with, as long as their gambling habit it satisfied.
As someone who works in hotels and has for the past five years, I’d like to say that people bring these in, buildings are not built with them. This is disgusting nevertheless, but dirty people make honest clean people suffer.
So if people stay at a hotel infested with bed bugs and unknowingly go home with a preggo bed bug that hitched a ride, those people are dirty in your eyes. Here's a fact: A bed bug infestation is not a sign of a dirty person, it can happen to anyone. As well as that person unknowingly taking a bed bug with them on a trip.
I work for a higher end resort/hotel chain and even with inspections/expensive BB covers on all the mattresses and box springs we still get a handful of units every year that get bed bugs. It’s a never ending battle.
people from other countries, yes, as bed bugs history goes back to the cave living days. Oh wait, they still do that....

Bedbugs have nothing to do with hygiene.
Read my review about bed bugs at the Linq at yelp, stayed the week after F1.
When I worked at the venetian a few years back the restaurant I worked at had a huge roach problem and they wouldn't shut down.grossed me out I was bartending one time and a couple a roaches came outta the napkin bin I had in front of me as I was serving a couple their drinks at the bar.so embarrassing 😢
Was it Oceans? Did roach 🪳land on drink?
Which restaurant?

People think it’s all glamour and a life style lol Raunchy dirty city, imagine all the filth they hide? I don’t understand why people pretend like they don’t care? 🤢 Vegas is overrated.
If u don’t know what u talking about why open ur mouth 👄
Yeah…I don’t know where YOU live, but it’s safe to believe that your Mayberry has every bit as much dirt and raunchiness in it. Count the number of illegal brothels in strip malls with blacked out windows and the words “Massage” and “Spa” as their sole business names in YOUR community. And that’s just a single example.
Sometimes a bug will jump off the bug man machine as they go door to door. You literally need a hazard team!
Nope all one needs is food grade DiatomaceousEarth
Disgusting!
Wow, bed bugs found in such high end places as the Venetian and Encore. Not sure what steps Strip housekeeping can take to identify and remove them, but they should get on this by yesterday.
Encore’s bedbug detection canine found a single live bug. I assure you that these resorts will indeed have gone full DEFCON on them.
Not shocking at all. Just know that dirty people from all over the world stay in those hotel rooms and the casinos do t have time to do Thorough cleaning. They also don't sanitize unless there is a need. People also go to hotels very very sick with all sorts of gross issues and also die in those same rooms. And not to mention, all the party people pissing , crapping themselves and vomiting in those beds and floors as well. Hotels charge all that money but they do not use it to maintain all those rooms. When I have to use a hotel room I take a sheet and my own blanket cuz I never sleep under the covers. 🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢
I DON'T BLAME YOU...THE VERY THOUGHT OF THOSE NASTY CRITTERS MAKE MY SKIN CRAWL😳🤮😳
Just pay the extra $45 for the room without the bugs, I'm sure sooner or later all those hotels will have a sign like that on the front desk.
And if you pay the extra money and find bed bugs anyway, they'll just refund the $45. So it's a risk free upcharge for the hotel.
Just ask which resorts clean their rooms daily, and keep bedbug sniffing canines on property.
Look for Roaches too 🤢
Those bed bugs may have come From Halifax Canada ...getting away from the cold-Unfortunately they travel free in your lugage and clothes One bug usually says to the other don't bug ME
im travelling from nova scotia to vegas and march. and already went to vegas in december. i don't like that thought of them hitching on me from here to there or anywhere lol
Wow dogs can sniff out certain types of bugs down to a single micro 1 ? Cool!!!
Never heard of a bedbug sniffing dog 😮
Encore/Wynn is my favorite Vegas hotel 😮
And they are the pricier resorts to reside at, and you have to possibly put up with bed bugs...
You know what's worse 🤮 Air-BNB's ARE NOT REGULATED!!! 🤣🤣
Have the dogs sniff the luggage being checked into the hotel for bedbugs.
These dogs would find a lot more than just bed bugs in these luggages...
Are those bugs included in the resort fee? I never read the fine print before signing. 🤔
Stayed at the Golden Nugget,they ate me up.
No surprise with the Excalibur that place is nasty.
Vegas is plagued with bedbugs. I lived in Vegas from 2007 to 2014 and even then there were bedbugs all throughout the huntridge neighborhood across from the stratosphere. Once I was at the Tod Motel and this one room they were cleaning we saw bedbugs walking right out the front door on a sunny day. Those MF mutated and can’t be stop lol They were getting tired of the small motels and wanted to move up to a deluxe apt in the sky
upscale bed bugs......
those MF be aspirational
For those who don’t know, Huntridge and the Stratosphere are located in the oldest section of Las Vegas, aside from Downtown (but near it). The area is extremely rundown and unkempt. I’m not shocked to read about the extreme bedbug situation, but I certainly wouldn’t judge the entire municipality the same way, any more than wherever you live should be.
The only way to get rid of them is throwing out old mattresses and buying new mattresses every couple years. Hotels cannot be keeping old lumpy mattresses and expecting these problems to go away.
There on the city bus too I send a video of some crawling on the bus seats to fox5 news and nothing was mentioned about it I also asked a couple of local stores that sell sprays to deal with bedbugs and they seen a rise in sales. Also sounds like Vegas is becoming infested with them, but would you expect this is a tourist state every tourist states deals with them
That's one way they spread they crawl on someone that person may work at a hotel then brings it in..
Yrs ago I stayed at the Horseshoe and Flamingo and had no issues, both are the best budget properties in LV Blvd.
How many people from the superbowl took them home???
How many people going to the Super Bowl brought them in.....
Bed bugs, homelessness, crime, and overinflated prices, welcome to Las Vegas Baby!
I used to go to casinos often and carried a ultraviolet flashlight to look for bed bugs. UV light can be used to detect both live bed bugs and their eggs. These are really cheap and small and can also detect urine and semen stains too, if the staff just remade the bed instead of changing the sheets. For less than $10 bucks plus batteries, you'll feel a lot better about where you're sleeping!
These motels bring in hookers for guest to sleep with just imagine the filth? These places are not clean that’s just the facts when you bring people from all over. Street walkers doing their business on the beds and the infestations have been around for years. At of these hotels remember they go from one place to the other these bugs hide in the shoes and socks.
You don't need an ultraviolet light to see bed bugs.
Bring a bag of food grade DiatomaceousEarth - something the hotels should use and there would never be an issue
In my experience Vegas is mostly a family destination
@@LebronCCPfamily? I literally just got back a few days ago, and I’m confused to why there was children there with so many naked women and women.
I See Hotels and all public settings unsanitary in the future.
Bed bugs are thought to have originated in Europe, the Middle East, or India, and have been around for at least 3,550 years. They are closely related to bat bugs and pirate bugs.
Where do bed bugs come from? How they get in ... - USA Today
Mar 29, 2023 - Their scientific name is Cimex lectularius and they're closely related to bat bugs and pirate bugs. They are thought to have originated in Europe, the Middle East or in India, but moved across the world as humans did, the Center for Invasive Species Research says.

Where Do Bed Bugs Live? How to Find Their Hiding Spot
Where do bed bugs originate from? Bed bugs originated in the Middle East and have been around for at least 3,550 years. Even ancient Egyptians dealt with these pests. Since they require blood to survive and reproduce, they've been feeding off of human blood for about as long as they've been around.
Terminix
Bed bugs are believed to have been first introduced to humans by bats in the Middle East, as bats and humans likely shared caves at one time.
Bed bugs have been a household pest for more than 3,300 year
I Take That Back. Ya Unsanitary!!! NOT THE HOTELS!
2/20/24 their in all hotels discusting.
I have react to them on my head and face
Las Vegas Strip smells alcohol and drugs all the time!
Thumbnail made me itch
Sleep in the bathtub. Bed bugs can’t crawl in the tubs.
I'm shocked at the encore 😮
Vegas is so gross …
lol you think it’s just Vegas? 😂
Because now, more than ever, the city smells alcohol and drugs!...
You can’t pull the sheets anymore in the hotels they have those zippers covers and couldn’t find where to open it at
Sometimes what happens in Vegas does not stay in Vegas !
i have them myself it sucks
i FOUND A NEW JOB. My gsd nose is incredible. She can be a bed bug sniffer, it must pay over 35 per hour with the trained dog.
For sure... a lot more than just bed bugs would be found in the luggage....
Bed bugs are everywhere and will always be a problem from time to time in every hotel and home. However as long as your take precautions and inspect your room and beds before you settle in you should be fine. Even the most high end hotel have had this problem form at one time. If you see something leave immediate and let staff know. Hotel really do try and keep on top of it however when you have travelers from all over the world that may bring them in unknowingly.
The Hotels charge extra for this "Amenity".
nothing new(z) here...but good to get the word out
All of a sudden i have an itch , is it a bed bug ?
If you stayed in one of the hotels in Vegas, yes, unfortunately the Vegas strip area is infested with these creatures....
houses get tented, jw do they do this every once in a while in tower hotels? like maybe floor per floor closing off vents idk or just take a week off n fumigate the whole thing to be safe?
tent off a hotel building? they are in the business of making money, not spending it on one giant tent event
@@gzstayreal i think u missed the part where i said floor per floor....
Heat treatments will help
I’ll tell you why it’s bed bugs in all these hotels being from Las Vegas and working not only as a housekeeper but as a manager. They treat the housekeepers like shit therefore they don’t have enough staff to clean those rooms resulting in careless cleaning. As a manager we are told that people who are staying over are last priority to people who are checking in. They tell us to give these house keepers all checkouts to clean for them over booking the hotel and only if a guest complain then we would service them. The house keepers are over worked and the floor supervisors are overwhelmed because they have to be the fave of all the complaints and frustrated housekeepers, while the floor managers sit in their ass and point fingers all day. Trust me I know a lot of what goes on in these hotels that y’all would be furious about but we’re silenced by threats and being blackballed from the hospitality industry, ooh baby it’s deep. While you are paying those resort fees you are not getting your moneys worth trust me. Some of y’all sheets and pillow cases don’t get changed at all. The changes will happen when you are the consumers stop getting tricked by the fake glamour and lights they are straight up robbing y’all and I seen it for myself.
Sneaky ninja dragon equals big huge bed bugs..???😀😛😜🤪😝🤑
Eeegh! And how much they charge for those room? Average $259, plus Tax.and Resort fee. !
It's gross & SIN+FUL!
DON'T Stay at these dumps!
Bed bugs and other pests were not a large problem in the US before DDT was outlawed in 1972.
DDT almost killed off all of our Ospreys, Eagles and Falcons. Not worth it. Check with a trap before you stay anywhere.
2 Shallow bowls, 2 sheets of paper, 1 package yeast, 1 sugar packet and warm water. Let sit for 2 - 3 hours near the bed or on the bed and near the curtains. If you see bugs in or near the bowl on the paper... leave quickly.
What about las vegas weekly rentals witch are 250 to 300qf along with multiple dogs is that a health concern !
Around the Strip area is the worst! They're too busy in making money from their tourists that forget to clean or pay attention to these creatures...
always keep your luggage in the bath tub in hotel rooms to avoid bringing them home.
Bedbugs are a nightmare
They can live up to over a year without food
Going to get worse income tax are coming in!
I aint busting cheeks on a hotel bed If it got bugs on it
“ incredible rare to travel on clothing’ and luggage “ sure ~ come get your bed bugs imagine the woman getting them in their hair? The encore and Wynn and the palazzo especially has always had bed bugs lol disgusting 🤮
don't tell anyone but Diana evoni has been bring in the bugs for years!
Everyone has them. There's no sense in wasting thouands of dollars on extermination until the Southern border is shut down tight.
Wtf SMH somebody call 📞 Causey Cleaning...
Also other hotels.
Imagine all Super bowl fools that stayed in Vegas last week. 😂😂
Bed Bugs are a delicacy; an aphrodisiac one might say. 😂
Direct results of not cleaning rooms daily operations change from Covid and continue today
Let’s get back to luxury in Vegas clean rooms daily
Looks like those Vegas bed bugs hit the jackpot with free room and board! 💸🐛
Bed bugs can be killed and outbreaks controlled, so easily with the natural food grade Diatomaceous Earth Food and it’s cheap.
But the labor to do this is not, so the hotels don’t. You are not worth the cost!
@@johncordova8304 diatomaceous earth is cheap. Cheaper than an exterminator. To put this on the beds,rugs, etc is not labor intensive.
Oh who will spread this wonderful stuff ? God?
“Um front desk, there is a fine dusty powder all over my room?”
“Oh don’t worry just a little treat for the bed bugs you’ll be sleeping with.”!
Oh no!
Now when you check in the hotel lobby ask them is it bed bugs gone? 😂🤣😅
Those rooms were occupied by San Franciscans. Mhm. I am not kidding. Check out and see if any previous guests are from SF. Our hotels have them everywhere here.
As a revenge for losing the finals....
It's not fun battling them, but you can defeat them!
We had bed bugs before and we had bites from them too
Just goes to show that you can get anything in Vegas 🤣
I consider bedbugs as a std now
This is a surprise 😮 …?
I used to work in housekeeping and we only wash and change the sheets and blankets once a week
Once a week? Thats not true.
That’s not true at every resort on the Strip.
@@ERAforALL I didn’t say EVVERRYYY lol
@@pops3287 You didn’t mention where you worked in housekeeping at all. However, you are commenting on an article about the Las Vegas Strip, and your comment could infer that your employer’s linen laundering policy is the standard for these resorts.
@@ERAforALL why does it matter where I work? My point is is that it happens goofball. Disney hotel and holiday inn in Waikiki
These more likely come from tourist. There's alot of dirty people. The casino are on top of it. Not their fault as 99% its people staying bringing them in. It happens everywhere.
It's the quality of people Las Vegas gets now. Low pandemic pricing drew Alot of low-class vile people to the nice hotels, real Ghetto Types. Their nasty hygiene and attitudes, have led to a massive decline in the hotels, as no one wants to work these jobs anymore, can't force people against their will to clean-up after you.
These bugs are desert born.
Am surprised that it happened at encore and Venetian hotels. Those hotels are expensive asf
i can’t stand this reporter - he speaks
like he’s got gum in his mouth

Me & my payaso🤡 get free rooms in our staycation and get bed bugs 🐞 all the time without our kids then go home & don't take showers 🛀
People are gross in vegas
Found bed bug at Mardi Gra on Paridise December 31, 2023!!
Mardi Gra? 😂
Take a UV light on every trip. You’ll be disgusted 🤢. Human fluids everywhere.
Bodily fluids, semen 🤮
What are the names of the Hotels with bed bugs?
Encore
Venetian
Mirage
Excalibur
Shocking! Now they in their homes.
Crabs,too.
I come every year to Vegas for a thing this year I came up with a new thing to combat bed bugs. I'm gonna order one of those extra large dog beds off the internet with my own sheets and set it up in my room for 2 weeks.
What will prevent the bugs from crawling into the dog bed?
@@theotheleo6830probably nothing. But I'm sure he could just throw it away. Probably easier to inspect a mattress like that than the whole bed. Plus dog beds can be washed too.
@@Fanatikh7 But if they do crawl into the dog bed, they'll crawl onto him and his clothing as well. Then, he'll pack his clothes in his suitcase and take the bugs home with him.
@@theotheleo6830 You are totally right. But at that point it's really up to the person on how well they check theirselves for bugs or not. I grew up in Oregon so we use to check eachother for ticks. You should probably already know you will have something on you so checking is a great idea. Do you want to take that trip or do you not? Will you probably get a bed bug? Maybe, maybe not. Are you going to be scared to go to a hotel for the rest of your life? I don't know how many times I've been to a hotel, but I've never ran into this situation. But I am sure it has happened to a lot of people. But this guy was giving a good way to fight against the possibility of it happening. We can "what if" all day long but at some point we are just going to have to live and learn.
@@Fanatikh7 How is it a good way to fight it if the bugs can just crawl in?
You know why the Cannery on the Boulder Highway hasn't reopened.
Because Boyd is cheap.
Why go to los vegas.
WELCOME to the BED 🛌 BUG BUFFET ... where YOU are on the MENU 😊
Tell us something new, all the hotel got bed bugs😂😂.
Why do i have to find them the hotel should find them
Maybe they bringing them so they can get free rooms
