This blog sums up some information about evicting a short term stay guest in the US. Note that the information in the article may not apply to all areas. This article is not written by an attorney and nothing written there should be construed as legal advice. For any eviction, before taking any action, make sure to contact an attorney well versed in short term rental laws in your part of the world. globalhostingblogs.com/2019/08/24/evicting-a-guest/Please keep in mind as well, that the laws pertaining to short term stay guests, or "transient occupants", are often quite dramatically different from those pertaining to tenants and long term rentals. Self-help evictions such as locking the STR guest out are often permissible with short term stay guests, but are not allowed and are quite illegal with standard tenants. So be sure you know what you are dealing with before you take action. The results of trying to do a "self-help eviction" on guests who are not short term stay guests, or who, if they are, may be claiming not to be, can be quite serious, as this California Airbnb host found out after being arrested by police when trying to remove squatters: www.ktvu.com/news/ktvu-local-news/mountain-view-landlord-tries-to-scare-tenants-away-with-staged-home-invasionwww.mountainview.gov/news/displaynews.asp?NewsID=1490&TargetID=9
