Skycroft Conference Center needs to be reported to the health department for not handling the bed bugs. They are clearly not getting rid of them. Who do you call to report such a problem?

Really insane that nothing has ben done

YES. this in INSANE. Bedbug treatment runs into the tens of thousands of dollars. With all the kids going through that place, so many homes could be infested. So disgusting.

Bed bugs reported from our middle school principal found at Skycroft this week. All of the bags were co-mingled on the bus on the way home. I can't believe MCPS continues to work with this bed bug infested facility.

I would not have known there was a problem on my child's trip unless I ran into another parent in the grocery store whose child came home with bites. Had it not been for that chance encounter I would have said my child's trip was fine too.

My DC attended last year. No bed bugs.

Aren't they always? Counting the days until my kid gets out of there.

Kudos to Frost. JW was mum.

My child was also part of the group of kids from Frost where bedbugs were found in one cabin. Lots of communication from the principal - two phone calls and an information sheet sent home. It is upsetting that this is a recurrent issue at Skycroft.
The group to go the second half of the week had a bear sighting, which also was communicated by the school.

If you think that the media should cover this, then call the media. And provide specific information. That ^^^ is not specific information.
