Martin, I can't tell if you are worried or excited at the possibility of using bedbugs for floor demos.
(Oh, wait, that would be Jonah Cohen who would get really excited
!)

Our institution is in the process of establishing a bedbug protocol.
Specifically, we are interested in (1) what steps to take when schools or
other groups with known bed bug problems visit our museum, and (2) what
steps to take if bedbugs are detected in our facility. We have contacts
with our local schools regarding their policies, but realize that museums
have different conditions and issues.
We would be most grateful for your advice, experiences (both good and
bad), and, most importantly, copies of protocols for dealing with the issue.
Thank you in advance for your ideas and assistance.
And many thanks for an awesome ASTC conference!
Cathy
