All it took were three bed bugs – just three of those tiny vampire-like critters and Denver West High School was closed.
The bugs were found recently in one of the campus’ classrooms. But after an immediate inspection, officials said that there was no infestation. Nevertheless, they wanted to make sure that no other bed bug sneaked its way to other parts of the school. So, it was decided that the campus would be temporarily closed.
A thorough school-wide treatment was scheduled during the closure. It started on Saturday and was set to be completed on Tuesday. West High will then reopen on Wednesday.
Parents were informed of the problem and the actions taken on Friday via a letter.

Dr. Robert Hancock, an associate professor at Metropolitan State University of Denver, said in the report about the bed bug incident in West High School that campuses are not really good places for those insects. The reason is that bed bugs got nobody to feed on in them at night. But as he suggested, schools could serve as pit stops to houses for those pests.
Bed bugs brought to school could hitch unnoticed to other students. In that way, they are transferred to various houses. And before you know it, they could also have been spread to your place.
Hence, it is always best to have a bed bug spray prepared. With it ready, you could promptly respond to the presence of those crawlies. In turn, that could prevent a massive infestation of them, which could save you from a huge expense for their treatment.
But your bed bug spray must be more than just effective. It must also be safe. And what safer choice is there than Bed Bug Bully, a product made with organic ingredients?
Because of the absence of harsh chemicals in its content, it releases no harmful residue that could harm your health or the environment. EPA has also recognized it as pesticide-exempt and got it classified under FIFRA 25(b). And when it comes to effectiveness, hotels, hospitals and pest-control companies have already proven that it works. So, you could rest assured that it is a high-quality help.
But if you’re still not convinced with that, why not try it yourself and see for real its benefits?
