If you’ve recently stayed at a hotel or waterpark in the Poconos and suffered from bed bug bites, you’re not alone. Increasing reports of bed bug infestations at popular Pocono resorts are causing serious concern for Pennsylvania families. These infestations not only lead to painful bites and skin infections, but also emotional distress, property damage, and costly medical bills. At the Pisanchyn Law Firm, our experienced Pennsylvania personal injury attorneys are here to help victims of negligent hotels seek justice and compensation.
Can You Sue a Hotel for Bed Bugs in Pennsylvania?
Yes, you can. Hotels and resorts have a legal responsibility to provide clean, safe accommodations. If you or your family were bitten by bed bugs due to a hotel’s negligence—whether at a Pocono waterpark resort or any other lodging—you may be entitled to compensation. This can include:
- Medical expenses
- Pain and suffering
- Property damage (clothing, luggage, furniture)
- Emotional trauma
- Lost wages due to time off work
Common Injuries and Damages Caused by Bed Bugs
Many people underestimate how serious a bed bug infestation can be. The injuries and repercussions are real and often long-lasting:
- Severe Itching and Allergic Reactions
- Skin Infections and Scarring
- Sleep Disruption and Anxiety
- Emotional Distress and Embarrassment
- Infestations in Your Own Home from transporting bugs unknowingly
These injuries can impact your quality of life—and you shouldn’t have to pay for a hotel’s failure to maintain safe, clean rooms.
Why Are Bed Bugs a Growing Problem in Pocono Hotels?
The Poconos are home to numerous family-friendly resorts and indoor waterparks that attract thousands of visitors year-round. High guest turnover and inadequate cleaning protocols create the perfect storm for bed bug infestations. If hotel staff fail to regularly inspect and treat rooms, guests are put at risk.
