YORK, S.C. - A South Carolina courthouse has been evacuated after bedbugs were found there for the second time in just over two weeks.

Hamilton told The Herald of Rock Hill officials decided to close the entire building for safety as a stronger chemical treatment is applied.

There are lots of courthouses that are infested with rats. But people just keep electing them.

People, especially judges, should stop sleeping in the courthouse. Problem solved.

Those damned Democrats are everywhere. Time to call the Orkin Man, on Nov. 6th. Let us spray and let us vote.

I’ve got centipedes at my home. The dangerous poisonous red ones. Was killing them. Decided to stop. They don’t bother humans if you don’t threaten them but they eat pretty much anything else including bedbugs, flies, mosquitoes, spiders, mice, rats, etc. They are basically vermin vacuums so I tolerate them. Wish they could vote. Lol.

We had one of those at a Water Plant I worked at in Texas. That thing was 8” long cruising around in the Chemical storage room. We left it alone because awe didn’t have a Lasso that would hold it. It even had a Mowhawk Fuz Cut.

Probably hitched a ride on somebody whose house was infected. Of course there is also the possibility someone is trying to get revenge on the court as well. Since I’ve never seen a bedbug until Obama was in charge, he will always be the bedbug President to me

Exactly. Bedbugs can live in any furniture, such as a cushioned chair, that's not solid wood, metal, or plastic. They can also live in carpet.

Over 120 degrees for over 20 minutes. Kills them all. Then they would have to apply the insecticide to kills the eggs.

Bedbugs cant stand heat.

They spotted them right where the handler pointed. WOOF!

2 treatments of diatomaceous earth with the heat treatments listed in #13 and every insect with an exoskeleton will be dead. 1st one gets the bugs. Second one gets the new hatches.

Check the jail. Criminals bring in bedbugs from the jail to their court hearings.

An Ozone machine has the same results at heat. It will not kill the eggs though.

Just did a little research on this and it appears it is not that simple.
