Kuai Technology, November 2 news: according to media reports, a mini-program called "Bed Bug Map" has recently gone viral on social platforms.

Relying on the feature that users can independently mark the locations of hotels where bed bug problems occur, the mini-program gained more than 200,000 users within just over a month of launch, and the cumulative number of marked hotels has exceeded 600.

Over the past week, some netizens noticed that the mini-program "Bed Bug Map" was suspended from use twice in succession. Previously, this mini-program allowed users to upload evidence of bed bugs found in hotels, and because it met the needs of some consumers, it sparked heated discussion among netizens.

Some people even developed the habit of checking the "Bed Bug Map" before booking a hotel.

It is understood that the "Bed Bug Map" mini-program officially launched on September 21. The homepage of the mini-program has three sections: "Hotels," "Appeals," and "Mine." On the appeals page, hotels can provide third-party pest control reports, while in "Mine," users can mark hotels with bed bugs.

The map on the homepage of "Bed Bug Map" can locate different cities on its own. Oval symbols of different colors represent different meanings such as bed bugs, cockroaches, other pests, and no evidence yet. The usage instructions clearly state that "the information is for reference only, and absolute authenticity cannot be guaranteed."

Some users also uploaded photos of skin covered with red spots, while others attached no images at all and merely left a sentence: "There are bed bugs."

On the map, users can mark the specific location and relevant circumstances of the hotel involved with one click, and other users can directly view the relevant marking information for the corresponding hotel when they open the mini-program, so as to have a reference for avoiding pitfalls in travel and accommodation in advance.

Public information shows that bed bugs are what people commonly call bedbugs. According to the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, "bed bug" is a direct Chinese translation of the English term "bed bug," and the official Chinese name is bedbug. During the day they hide in crevices such as mattress edging and bed frame seams, and at night they come out to activity.

Facing the huge traffic, he admitted: "I definitely cannot make it perfect and flawless on my own."

What prompted him to develop this mini-program was his own painful experience of being bitten when moving house. He also noticed that channels for obtaining relevant information were scattered, consumers needed to spend a lot of time and energy searching, and some hotel "pitfall-avoidance posts" were "deleted or blocked" after a few days, which he believed was not conducive to consumers' right to know.
