The words bed bugs and scabies, can make you
start to itch and cause panic and uncertainty.
These common creepy crawlies can be treated
and prevented by providing education and helpful
tips to health care professionals, patients and
those providing care/services in community
settings.
Attendees will obtain information on understanding
the differences between bed bugs and scabies as
well as treatment, prevention and control methods.
At the present time, both are not reportable to the
local health departments within North Carolina but
require prompt attention by those affected.
