Bed Bug Protocol<br />Introduction<br />Bed bugs are a growing nuisance in New York City.  While bed bugs are a nuisance, their bites are not known to spread disease.  The source of bed bugs often cannot be determined, as bed bugs are found in many places including homes, hotels, planes and public facilities in growing rates.  Because bed bugs are increasingly present in the community we serve, we expect bed bugs will occasionally be brought into our school in clothing or belongings.  Though schools are at high risk for exposure to bed bugs, schools are at low-risk for bed bug infestations because bed bugs are typically active at night when people are sleeping.<br />Bed Bug Protocol Guiding Principles:<br />,[object Object]
Minimize risk of infestation in the school

Bedbug protocol

  • 1.
  • 2. Minimize risk of infestation in the school
  • 3. Protect our staff, scholars, and families by mitigating the risk of spreading bedbugs to their homes
  • 4. Avoid stigmatization of scholars who may have bedbugs in their homes
  • 5. Minimize the spread of inaccurate information to staff, scholars, and families
  • 6. Minimize the spread of anxiety among staff, scholars, and families
  • 7.
  • 8. AF schools will allow voluntary plastic bagging of scholar and staff belongings to reduce the risk of bedbugs spreading from item-to-item and room-to-room
  • 9. School staff will remain vigilant – In the event that a scholar has bite marks and is complaining of constant itching, the following steps will be taken:
  • 10. Keep all suspected bed bug issues confidential.
  • 11. Scholars suspected of having bed bug bites should bag their belongings until the school and/or parent/guardian elect to stop bagging because the threat of bed bugs has passed.
  • 12. Notify the main office immediately.
  • 13. The scholar’s parent/guardian should be notified.
  • 14.
  • 15. Note: If scholars are present, please capture the bug discreetly. Try not to draw attention to the presence of a bug, and do not mention “bed bugs”. We want to minimize the spread of inaccurate information and anxiety about bed bug infestation.
  • 16. If the bug was found on a scholar, notify the scholar's parents/guardians. The scholar should not be removed from class or sent home. Person Responsible: Office Coordinator. Must call parent by phone and must speak with a parent/guardian directly (voicemail, leaving a message with another family member not acceptable).
  • 17. If the bug was found on a scholar, and the scholar is not participating in voluntary bagging of his/her coat and book bag, the scholar’s belongings should be bagged in a large ziplock. Bagging should continue daily until the bug is determined not to be a bedbug, , or until such time as the school and/or the scholar’s family elect to discontinue this practice because the threat has passed. Person Responsible: Homeroom teacher.
  • 18. If bug was found on a desk/chair, ask the custodian to isolate the furniture (i.e. put outside of the school/on the roof). Person Responsible: Director of School Operations.
  • 19. Classes will proceed as normal unless informed otherwise by the school leadership team
  • 20.
  • 21.
