Bedbugs Still a Problem
Florida hotels are changing their inspection policies to actively let inspectors into rooms to search for bedbugs. A new policy by the Department of Business and Professional Regulations, Division of Hotels and Restaurants, which provides for inspections, formal warnings and a prohibition on renting bed bug infested rooms is being instituted.
The state department created its new policy after consulting with the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other agencies nationwide according to the Orlando Sentinal.
The old law allowed they could only tell the hotel to remedy the problem because they had no authority to do more.
