SunState Commercial Cleaning – New Smyrna Beach, FL | November 14, 2025


Airbnb and other short-term rentals have transformed the way we travel. They offer comfort, convenience, and a sense of “home away from home.” But behind the cozy décor and neatly folded towels, there may be hidden health risks lurking—especially in the bedroom, the place where you should expect to feel safest and most relaxed.


“Woke up with bites.” — A 4-star review that cost a NSB host $1,500 in extermination.





Your bedroom is your guest’s sanctuary. But in high-turnover rentals, it’s also a health hazard hotspot.


Here’s how to prevent dangers — and keep your 5★ rating safe.


Danger #1: Bed Bugs & Dust Mites

Prevention Steps

  1. Mattress Encasement → Waterproof, zippered (blocks bugs & mites)

  2. UV-C Sanitizing Wand → 60 sec per side (kills 99.9%)

  3. Hot Wash Linens → 140°F+ commercial cycle

Pro Tip: Inspect seams monthly — early catch = $0 cost.


Danger #2: Hair, Skin Cells & Bodily Fluids

Prevention Steps

  1. Strip & Seal → All linens → bio-bag immediately

  2. Fresh Linens Every Guest → 8 sheets, 4 pillowcases per 2BR

  3. Headboard Wipe → EPA rinseless disinfectant

Host Hack: Swan fold master pillow → instant “hotel-fresh” photo.


Danger #3: Allergens & Mold

Prevention Steps

  1. Hypoallergenic Pillows → Sealed, washable

  2. Dehumidifier → Keep <50% humidity

  3. Lavender Linen Mist → Natural, allergy-safe scent

Florida Rule: Fresh linens required every turnover.


Danger #4: Cross-Contamination

Prevention Steps

  1. Color-Coded Microfiber → 🟢 Green = bedroom only

  2. Single-Use Cloths → Dispose after job

  3. No Shared Tools → Separate vacuum head
