  • Bed bugs have become an increasing problem in several hotels along the Las Vegas Strip. As thousands of people prepare to travel to Las Vegas for the upcoming Super Bowl and F1 events, there is concern about what these guests could unknowingly bring with them. Health inspections have revealed multiple instances of bed bug infestations in strip hotels over the past two years. Recent inspections in July and August uncovered new cases of bedbugs in at least two new strip resort hotels. At the Venetian, a guest reported finding bed bugs on July 29th and was relocated to another suite. A subsequent inspection confirmed the presence of the insects. Similarly, a guest at Park MGM reported bedbugs on August 14th, leading to a positive test during an inspection the following day. Despite attempts to obtain comments, the hotels have remained silent on the issue. In addition to Caesars, Circus Circus, Palazzo, MGM Grand, Tropicana, Planet Hollywood, and Sahara, which have all previously been identified with bed bug infestations, it is clear that the responsibility falls on the hotels to ensure a safe and pest-free environment for their guests. Brian Virag, a bedbug attorney, emphasizes that while hotel housekeeping is trained to look for these insects, guests should also be proactive in checking for signs of infestation. Virag recommends inspecting between the baseboard and the mattress, as bed bugs tend to avoid areas of high activity. Additionally, he advises against placing luggage on beds or near carpeting. Ultimately, guests have the right to a safe and habitable place to sleep during their stay.
