In case you missed it, a recent article detailed the experience of family traveling and encountering bed bugs. In another article, a school district needed to quarantine technlogy devices due to bedbugs.
Experts believe the recent increase in bed bugs in the United States may be due to more travel, lack of knowledge about preventing infestations, increased resistance of bed bugs to pesticides, and ineffective pest control practices.
The Environmental Protection Agency has a website devoted to information about bedbugs and the Environmental Health Service has information in Spanish.
Often, we are addressing real world issues in the adult education classroom. I am interested in your experiences with this issue. Does anyone have a lesson plan they've used?
I'm looking forward to learning how you may be addressing this topic in your classroom.
Sincerely,
Kathy Tracey
