LAKELAND, TN -

(WMC) - A young girl was bitten by bed bugs in a Mid-South motel, and her mother wants answers.

They were staying at the Motel 6 on Austin Peay Highway.

Shelby County Health officials say there have been a total of 15 bed bug complaints this year at local motels and hotels.

This motel guest learned the hard way while waiting to move into her new home.

"When we first checked in everything seemed fine," said mother Telika Howard.

Howard says she and her daughter had only spent one night as guests on April 10.

"The next morning my daughter was itching all over, and so we moved the sheets, and I saw a couple of bugs," said Howard.

When her daughter returned from school the next day Howard says she was covered in a bad red rash.

"Her face, her legs, her arms, so I took her to Methodist North hospital, and they confirmed that it was bed bug bites all over her body," she said.
