FLINT, MI -- Officials at Mott Community College have removed chairs from a building on the Flint campus after they were notified of bed bugs found on the furniture.
An email sent out Friday, Oct. 18 by Jason Wilson, the colleges vice president of student success services, discusses the discovery of the bugs on Thursday in the Mott Memorial Building student lounge, room 2140.
The chairs have been removed and are being treated, reads the email addressed to faculty, staff, and students. "The other furniture has been secured and isolated from use."
The email further states Dr. Russell Bush, physician director for the colleges Health Services office, has provided resources about this issue.
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the U.S. Department of Agriculture all consider bed bugs a public health pest, according to the EPA website. However, unlike most public health pests, bed bugs are not known to transmit or spread disease.
News of the bed bugs at Mott Community College adds to the list of Genesee County schools dealing with the matter.
Carman-Ainsworth Community Schools sent home information with students in recent days cautioning parents of bed bugs found Oct. 2 in a classroom at the districts high school, 1300 N. Linden Road, in Flint Township.
The district is operating under the guidance of the Genesee County Health Department and the Michigan Department of Community Health.
Eddie Kindle, superintendent of Carman Ainsworth Community Schools, stated in an Oct. 14 letter to parents that the health department advised schools not be closed due to bed bugs.
Finding a bed bug does not mean that the school building is infested, Kindle said.
However, the district always works to identify pests, provide thorough inspections of schools and have licensed pest control specialists to treat rooms as appropriate.
Steps Carman-Ainsworth is taking include:
