Ehrlich Pest Control returned to Main Street Elementary School on Thursday, at 3:30 p.m., to inspect the school's bathrooms after the discovery of a bed bug infestation in late January.

The infested bathrooms were treated Feb. 2.

Titusville Area School District Superintendent Karen Jez said Thursday night that she will receive a report from Ehrlich this morning, regarding the results of Thursday's inspection.

In a previous statement, Jez said that, in the event bed bugs are rediscovered, the district will repeat the pest control process, including having Ehrlich return for follow-up treatment and bagging personal belongings.

The process, Jez described, is the same as when lice are found at a school.

After the discovery of the bed bug infestation, most likely caused by the pests riding to school on a student, Jez posted a letter to the district's website, gorockets.org, advising parents to inspect their homes.

Just what are bed bugs?
