CHARLOTTE COUNTY, FL -

We have confirmed a Charlotte County movie theater has been treated for a bed bug infestation.

TheRegal Cinemas 16 Theater in Port Charlotte Town Center was affected.

The Florida Department of Health in Charlotte County confirmed they received a complaint of bed bugs on Nov. 7. An investigation into the complaint accusation was discovered to be true.

Move theater employees say the bugs were found in theater four.

"We went into the ladies room disrobed shook our clothes out and saw specks on the floor. So, it isn't just theater number four," Sherry Ballou said.

Dozens of our viewers reached out to us after our story first aired on Wednesday. They tell us they first told management about the problem back in September.

"We took them at their word that they would look into it, and it would be resolved because we said if it doesn't get resolved we will report it to the health department," Ballou said.

Officials with the Florida Health Department in Charlotte County tell us the theater was closed for several days as a pest control company treated the place. It has since been reopened.

"It just takes one female bed bug to hitchhike on one person. That person can take it into their home, and the next thing you know they have thousands of bed bugs," exterminator Keith Gross of Gross pest services said.
