The mini-bedbug map program has become popular in China, with more than 600 hotels already marked with it.
A mini-program that allows users to flag hotels infested with bed bugs has become a hit on Chinese social media.
The program has attracted more than 200,000 users since its launch on September 21, with more than 600 hotels tagged by online users.
The bed bug has been the subject of complaints from netizens who reported redness, swelling and itching after being bitten while staying in hotels. Therefore, the launch of this mini-program has been supported by many who believe it can force hotels to improve sanitation conditions.
However, others argue that allowing online users to determine for themselves whether bed bugs are present could lead to unfairness and the possibility of malicious attacks on hotels.
The developers said they are eliminating the vulnerabilities by introducing mandatory images and adding appeal channels.
