The school year has begun and not only are germs shared, but so are bed bugs…
If a bed bug is found on a child in school, it does not mean the child brought the bed bug into the school. Bed bugs do not infest people; they only feed on them. Bed bugs can crawl onto or off of a person (or their belongings) at any time. The following actions will be helpful in dealing with any bed bug sightings:
–>Educate everyone.
–>Have an action plan.
–>Remain calm.
–>One bed bug is NOT an infestation – inspect and monitor.
–>Infested classrooms require professional treatment and parental notification.
