Central Ohio Bed Bug Task Force

Prevention/Reducing Infestations

This task force has come together in a unified effort to Prevent, Educate and Eliminate bed bug infestations in our community.

Our main goal will be to create and convey a message to the residents of the Greater Columbus Area; about how infestations occur and best treatment for when they do occur; coordinate Enforcement efforts; to overcome public apathy and reduce the stigma associated with a bed bug infestation; to educate the public without alarming them; to search for funding resources for education and outreach; to partner with the medical community; pursue research funding for OSU; and create Public Service Announcements.
