WCHSWEB
Director of Schools Bobby Cox says two bedbugs were found at WCHS on Thursday morning.
Bedbugs found at Warren County High School on Thursday have sparked concern, but Director of Schools Bobby Cox says the situation is under control.Cox said two bedbugs were found in one classroom Thursday morning and the issue was addressed immediately.“They closed the classroom and there were no classes there the rest of the day,” Cox said Thursday afternoon. “There won’t be any classes there on Friday and we’ll heat treat the classroom. We’ll keep it closed over the weekend so that should take care of the situation and everything will be fine by Monday.”Cox said a professional pest control company and the school system’s Health Services Department both evaluated the bedbug problem Thursday and agree the classroom should be fine Monday after treatment.Bedbugs are a parasitic insect with a reputation of being difficult to remove.
