Ealing Central Library closes after bed bugs are spotted in furnishings. Pest controllers in London report being "inundated" with calls about the blood-sucking insects and say their spread is "out of control".
My understanding is short of full-scale fumigation, steaming everything effected is the only really reliable method of dealing with them right now. They are too resistant to everything else.
Oh I work in hospitality, it's something we are VERY concerned about. Albeit I am not in housekeeping, but we test very often and have local pest control basically on retainer in case something comes up. Steaming all the linens is fairly standard, but it only takes one case spreading to ruin a hotel.
