Return to Public Health Protection and Safety

 

General Information

In recent years there has been a resurgence of bed bug infestations throughout the United States. In response to this re-emerging public health issue, the Kentucky Department for Public Health (DPH) is providing guidelines to assist affected entities in the prevention, surveillance, and control of bed bug infestations. Based on reports from local health departments and pest control operators (PCOs), bed bug infestations have been found in hotels, nursing homes, public housing, apartment complexes, moving vans, jails, furniture rental stores, dormitories, and other multi-unit dwellings. In addition, information is often sought by private homeowners experiencing a bed bug infestation. Click on additional information links below for further information.
