A mother travelling with her children says she had a skin-crawling experience at a Texas hotel over the weekend, claiming she was greeted by dozens of bedbugs covering the bed, headboard and beyond after entered her room.

Kali Powell, who was travelling with her two young children, called the incident “traumatising”, Fox News reported.

“It was the most nasty thing. They were big, they were little. There was blood on the sheets. That was from when we were flipping the sheets, and bugs were crushed by the sheets,” Ms Powell told San Antonio’s WOAI News, sharing mobile phone footage of the insects inside her room at Drury Inn and Suites in Stone Oak, San Antonio.

Ms Powell said her two children had already fallen asleep before she noticed the bloodsucking insects.

“Poor kids were laying in the beds with these things crawling all over eating away at them. I have never dealt with this ever in my life,” she warned in a Facebook post early on Saturday, local time.

Panicked, the mum contacted the hotel’s assistant manager and was transferred to another room that she was assured was bug-free. However, Ms Powell couldn’t help but wonder if she carried any critters over with her.

In a post online, she advised others staying at the hotel to monitor the room for any potential signs of a “nasty infestation”.

Drury Hotels confirmed they were contacted about the incident and stressed that the “safety and comfort” of guests is their “top priority”.

“No hotel can prevent bedbugs from being introduced, but we are extremely vigilant and take proactive steps to check on a daily basis and treat any issues as soon as they are discovered,” a spokesperson for the hotel chain told WOAI.

Brexit: Does the Irish peace accord rule out a hard border?

aoiseach Leo Varadkar, the Irish prime minister, has told the Irish Parliament that the UK and Ireland must honour the Good Friday Agreement and honour their commitment not to have a hard border.

After Brexit, the border between Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic would become the only land border between the UK and the European Union. If there wasn't a deep enough trade deal between the UK and the EU, it would likely mean checks on goods which cross it.

That's where the backstop comes in - an insurance policy to avoid new inspections or infrastructure at the border - after Brexit.

It's a key part of Theresa May's Withdrawal Agreement - but a major reason why it suffered an historic defeat in the Commons.

She's under pressure to change it, but all sides say this can't come at the expense of Ireland's historic peace accord.

What is the Good Friday Agreement?

Also known as the Belfast Agreement, it is the deal that is widely seen as marking the effective end of Northern Ireland's "Troubles".

It established a devolved power-sharing administration, and created new institutions for cross-border cooperation and structures for improved relations between the British and Irish governments.

It was approved by referendums in Northern Ireland and Ireland in 1998 and was subsequently incorporated into British and Irish constitutional law and other areas of legislation.
