Reasons behind the appearance of insects in hotels and hostels
If you or your guests find insects in a room or apartment, you first need to find out the reason for their appearance and establish the epicenter of intrusion.
There can be a huge variety of reasons, but often all sorts of harmful insects occur because of:
But even if you have full control over your own building and cleanliness, there is a possibility that parasites can sneak from neighboring houses, come along with tourists, luggage, parcels, etc. Therefore, no matter how you try to protect yourself, no one will give you a full guarantee.
There can be a huge variety of reasons, but often all sorts of harmful insects occur because of:
- Lack of repair and non-compliance with sanitary standards. Hotels and hotels must undergo at least a slight cosmetic renovation every couple of years. Otherwise, cracks appear in the walls that can become a shelter for cockroaches and various beetles. In addition, over time, dampness forms in these cracks, which can also cause pests.
- Poor sanitization. If the maids do not cope well with their direct duties, in 99% of cases, over time, insects will appear in the rooms and corridors. The remains of crumbs or food behind the bed, on the windowsills or on the balcony attract pests, who will come running attracted by treats. Realizing that there is food in the premises, insects will not leave it under any circumstances.
- The age of the building. Many tourists are attracted by ancient buildings housing hotels or hostels. But if the hotel was built a long time ago, the building materials and its components could have become obsolete a long time ago, which may well lead to the appearance of pests: ants, beetles, and cockroaches.
- Utility rooms. Many hotels have their own laundry, boiler room or utility rooms, where dampness remains and sanitary conditions are poorly controlled. It is a paradise for mice and other pests. At first, they may not be visible to the eye, but as soon as their populations grow, they will be relocated to hotel rooms.
- Restaurant or food preparation areas in hostels. If the hotel or hostel has a restaurant or kitchen, it is imperative to comply with hygiene regulations. It is these premises that most often become the basis for the reproduction of populations of parasites.
But even if you have full control over your own building and cleanliness, there is a possibility that parasites can sneak from neighboring houses, come along with tourists, luggage, parcels, etc. Therefore, no matter how you try to protect yourself, no one will give you a full guarantee.
