The Community Corrections Association has been taking remedial measures after bedbugs were found in recent months in two of its Market Street residential facilities.
We are working diligently with Grace exterminators and taking preventive measures to ensure the health and well-being of our residents, said David Stillwagon, chief executive officer of the association, which serves as a halfway house for criminal offenders.
Preventive measures include discarding the wood-frame beds the bugs are attracted to and replacing them with metal-frame beds in affected areas, he said.
Initially, bedbugs were reported in late December in a four-bed intake room at 1608 Market St., and the bugs spread to two other four-bed rooms there.
After that incident, two residents were given an anti-itch skin cream, Stillwagon said.
After the exterminator sprayed insecticide and beds were replaced in the three affected rooms and three nearby rooms, the bugs were eradicated there, Stillwagon said.

Investigators say the death of a baby and the hospitalization of four other children are linked to high levels of an insecticide found in the family's northern Alberta apartment.
Brad Grainger, deputy chief of operations for the Fort McMurray fire department, said the family brought the insecticide, which is similar to aluminum phosphide pellets used in North America, home from Pakistan, where they were on vacation about 10 days ago.
The pellets, when put into fumigator, emit a phosphine gas, which can be toxic.
"We're not sure how long the family was exposed,'' Grainger said. "The younger that you are, the more susceptible you can be.''
One of the children, an eight-month-old baby, died in hospital and four others were in critical condition Monday. Ages and names were not released.
Grainger didn't say what type of insect the family was trying to kill, but the Edmonton Journal quoted a relative who said it was bed bugs.
Grainger said that type of insecticide is a controlled substance in Canada.
He said an acceptable level of exposure is one part per million over 15 minutes or 0.3 parts per million over eight hours. One room in the apartment had concentrated levels of the insecticide at four parts per million.
"(That's) about four times the average short duration exposure (that's safe),'' he said.

Fort McMurray Baby's Death Caused By Pesticide For Bed Bugs
Society By Jonathan Constante, Tue, February 24, 2015
A Canadian mom was trying to kill bed bugs by fumigating her apartment with a chemical she brought from Pakistan. Instead, she killed her 8-month-old baby and left her other four children in critical condition, the NY Daily News reports.
The mother was using anagricultural pesticideto get rid of the bed bug infestation in the familys Fort McMurray, Alberta, apartment.
The substance, which is strictly controlled in Canada and requires special training to use, releases phosphine gas when exposed to air. The gas is not only colorless and odorless but also extremely toxic, the Daily Mail reports.
After just a few hours of fumigation, all five children in the home showed signs of serious illness.
According to the firefighters, a reading of 1 part per million can be hazardous, and it only takes 15 minutes to reach that level. The reading in the bedroom was at a staggering 4 parts per million. The substance becomes immediately lethal at 5.
There was significant exposure, one emergency worker said.
All five children were vomiting, but they were not taken to the hospital until the next morning.
The mothers 8-month-old baby died at the hospital on Sunday. The other four, aged between 2 and 7 years, remain in critical condition.
Wood Buffalo RCMP Cpl. George Cameron said that the incident appears to be an accidental poisoning. The mothers sister, Shazia Yarkhan, also stated that it was an accident.

Mother Accidentally Kills Her Baby Using Pesticide To Get Rid Of Bed Bugs

The federal government is warning Canadians of what it calls the extreme danger of using unregistered products to fight bedbugs.
The Health Canada warning comes after two children from northern Alberta died from a toxic insecticide thought to be aluminum phosphide brought back by the family from Pakistan.
Health Minister Rona Ambrose expressed her condolences to the family, who was attending the funeral of son Zia, 2 on Friday. His eight-month-old sister died Sunday.
Its a really tragic situation and this is a product that in terms of how its regulated, is not supposed to be used in homes ever, Ambrose said in Calgary.
Its a very dangerous pesticide and it needs to be used by people who are trained to use it.
Health Canada said aluminum phosphide is highly toxic to people and animals.
The department said it can only be sold to people with special training and is not approved for use on bedbugs.
It is not clear how the family managed to bring the pesticide into Canada.
Health Canada says people can legally import small amounts of chemical pest control products not registered in Canada for their personal use, but the rules are aimed at products such as insect repellent.
