Roach infestation at daycare

[Anonymous]

All over kitchen. What would you do?
I'm obviously up at 4 worried. But worring solves nothing.
We are in Arlington is it overcrowding? Should I just be thankful its not rats?

Did you talk to the director? What's their mitigation strategy, and when is the exterminator coming? If the exterminator was just there, it's normal to see more roaches for a few days as they try to get out of the way of the bad stuff. Roaches happen, especially in older buildings.

If they are unresponsive, call the county and they'll inspect it.

Contact the health department. Contact licensing. This is disguisting.

Oh no! I wonder if the construction next door has stirred the roaches up. ICK ICK ICK.

Yes. And that is exactly what I thought.

Just curious how you found out. We have two children there and haven't heard this. Did you happen to see the roaches or did someone tell you?

God that building is a dump.

My kids are here too, so I sympathize. And I'm sure the asst director is on it- she is one of the hardest working people I know! The problem is that the building is old and now the construction on the other side is compounding these problems. Calling the health dept or licensing is not going to change anything in the longer-term. The teachers at this center are excellent and they deserve better space (as do the kids). Email Kindercare's corporate office to complain- they are the ones who control the building situation, not the center directors.

I emailed the regional manager but I get the impression all they can do is call terminix which is clearly not working. Is there somebody above the regional manager? And you are right the teachers are great they should not have to deal with this crap either. They can take these things home.

Shake out EVERYTHING before you bring it in the house. Those things can hitchhike in a zippered bag. yikes.

Can a parent that is in the extermination business provide the daycare with temporary solutions?

[Anonymous]

That is DISGUSTING. NO you should not be thankful it's not rats.
