Public Health Update About Bed Bugs

There have been several recent outbreaks of bed bugs in Polk County and in the surrounding area. Heartland would like to provide staff with access to educational materials regarding bed bugs. The Polk County Department of Public Health has created several education pieces that will prove useful to staff, especially those who are involved in home visits and visits to daycare centers.

To learn more, please use the following resources:
