Doctor reveals unsettling reason why you should wait to unpack your suitcase after traveling
Fox News
A Virginia primary care physician is telling people on social media to be "lazy" and to not unpack their luggage for up to 10 days to avoid a bed bug infestation.
"Here's why you shouldn't unpack your suitcase right after coming home from a vacation," Singh said on TikTok. "OK, so you hear me out, especially if you stayed in a hotel. And that's because of bedbugs." Sydney Borchers is a lifestyle production assistant with Fox News Digital.
"Bed bug eggs typically hatch within six to 10 days, and the nymphs require a blood meal shortly after hatching to continue their development," he added.
