It's usually a bustling building of books, but that was before the bugs.
"They had to shut down the whole library, wow!" said one customer.
Two tiny bed bugs, prompting an all out offensive.
"We have an exterminator on site right now," said Library director Gary Shaffer, taking every precaution to keep them from spreading. Which, by the way, how do you keep them from spreading?
"Don't really know the answer to that question," he said.
Where do you go to find more information about bed bugs when the library is closed? Another library. Preferably one with bug experts.
"You might have heard your parents say, don't let the bed bugs bite," said Jackson and Nathan, two kids, pulling out the hard covers to get to the bottom of bed bugs.
"Bed bugs are flat reddish-brown insects. A bit smaller than a raisin," said Jackson.
If only they were as kind and beautiful as butterflies. Instead, it turns out, these little vampires suck your blood.
"They stick their mouth parts into our skin. Ewww. And suck it away. Ahhh!" he said.
"If you think you've been bitten by bed bugs don't panic and don't try to...don't try to what? I don't know. Call the police? That would never work. I know. Scratch," he said.
Back at central the director is confident things should be back to normal in no time.
"I think the public should feel assured that when they do return that the facility will be safe for them to do so," said Shaffer.
And if anyone does spot another bed bug? Just call Nathan.
"I'd just like get a bat and hit it," he said.
