Greenville New Bern Washington, NC, September 22, 2026 —

The Beulaville Emergency Medical Services (EMS) station, located in Duplin County, North Carolina, has been the site of multiple treatments aimed at eradicating a bed bug infestation. The presence of these pests has led to operational adjustments, including the temporary relocation of station personnel.

According to available information, the station has undergone three separate treatment cycles to combat the bed bugs. The specific timeline for these treatments was not provided. Following these interventions, the crew assigned to the Beulaville station has been temporarily moved to an alternative facility to ensure continued service delivery while remediation efforts are completed and verified.

The exact details regarding the company or contractor responsible for the treatments, the specific methods used, or the duration of the crew’s relocation were not disclosed. Information regarding any potential impact on emergency response times or specific protocols implemented during the relocation also remains unstated.

Bed bugs are small, parasitic insects that feed on blood. Their presence in facilities like EMS stations can pose significant challenges, necessitating thorough and repeated treatment protocols. The decision to temporarily relocate the crew suggests a comprehensive approach to ensure the health and well-being of emergency responders and to maintain the operational integrity of the station once it is fully remediated.

Further updates on the resolution of the bed bug issue and the return of the crew to the Beulaville EMS station were not immediately available. The county’s EMS department is managing the situation to minimize disruption to emergency services in the area.
