We also have the additional struggles of coping with the pressures of studies, money management, and making time for healthy communication. If you feel stressed, know that you are not alone. Together we come up with creative solutions to common problems.

  • Bed Bug Advice Spring 2012

  • In an effort to educate residents about bed bugs, we are providing advice and tips. Do not remove furniture, bedding or mattresses from trash dumpsters. There is no way to tell if these items have bedbugs. The Village has had a couple of instances where an apartment has bedbugs due to "dumpster diving." In another case, a borrowed sleeping bag was the probable source of bedbugs.

    Bed bugs are very difficult to see because they come out at night while most people are sleeping. If you wake up with a series of bites more than one time, you might have bedbugs.

    If you think you have them, please contact the Village Office 526-8505 and the campus pest management staff will come and inspect your apartment. Please do not wait for weeks, hoping they will go away.
