We are delighted to share that ¡HOLA! magazine has mentioned RapiPlaga as an expert source in its article “A pest expert warns: ‘The first thing you should never do is open your suitcase on the bed’” (in Spanish), published on 25 August 2025 by journalist Ana Merodio. The feature includes our recommendations for avoiding bringing bed bugs home after a trip.
The key tips we shared with the magazine include:
- Don’t open your suitcase on the bed; handle your luggage in safe areas such as the bathroom or a terrace.
- Wash your clothes at 60 °C for more than an hour when you get home, because heat is the best weapon against this pest.
- Look out for warning signs such as black spots, empty shells, blood stains or bites in a line.
We would like to thank ¡HOLA! for its trust and for spreading good prevention practices. At RapiPlaga we remain committed to a professional, fast and safe service for controlling bed bugs and other pests.
If you suspect bed bugs in your home, don’t use household insecticides: contact our team for a professional assessment.
