[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OMG. I love the library!!! Is there some preventive measure we can take. Like can we just put the books in a plastic bag for 24 hour or something (I have a feeling bed bugs are harder to kill than that). [/quote] No, 24 hours is not nearly enough. The only even remotely semi-practical thing to do would be to heat them in a PacTite machine for a few hours. Ideally, libraries would develop heat treatment options for returned books before releasing them back into circulation, which would lower the risk of bedbug transmission back to whatever it is for any public place, but I just don't see that happening, somehow.[/quote]
