I am sorry, I know this isn't really funny, but a perverse streak in me finds it hilarious.

Victory over the chew-daddies! Good to hear.

Once you have an infestation, one treatment isnt going to do it. Dogs only detect live bugs not their eggs.

At least Steve and Juan were affected since the are never in town hall.

I had business at the courthouse yesterday - i went and there was a barracade in front with a taped peice of copy paper saying municiple bldg was closed. Numerous people were trying to go to court or had business also and standing around wondering what happened. I called the Building Dept from my cell phone and thats how i found out. So i was leaving and there were multiple police officers chatting behind the building. I mentioned that it would be a good idea to have someone inform people of what was going on.. so those that had court dates ect were informed. The cop i spoke to dismissingly said 'whats the big deal the building is closed' i said yes but those who have court dates and things you could tell them they will be sent resched dates in the mail.. you know provide a public service, be informative. After all, all those people who work in the building were asked to leave and i'm sure they were paid from our tax dollars and not one could have stayed to inform those that had business? Not handled well at all!!

I always knew that all the people in town hall were BUGGY!

the Township alerted all media when the decision to close was made including this website, local newspapers and radio stations. The Township changed the telephone answering system to inform all callers about the closure. The closure was posted it on social media and the municipal television station. Efforts to inform the public were made.

They must have hired some discount exterminator. You cannot rid a building of bed bugs in that short a time period. They will definitely close again in a week or so when more eggs hatch. Unless you work there, I would stay away.

You would have to be deaf dumb and blind not to know the offices were closed yesterday! The township did a great job of informing all the media outlets plus Facebook and Twitter and all the NY and Philly channels. All joking aside it is sort of an embarrassing PR for the township to put out and the honesty with which it was done is refreshing for what usually comes out of town hall. I do feel bad for the employees and cops families who may have been exposed to this menace, unfortunately bed bugs are having a comeback which is fierce and any of us could end up with them!

Did they also get the cockroaches while they were at it...

Acropolis, Pezarras, Bellu.... and council!!

"The trap, neuter, and release program should be expanded to include bedbugs."

Brick has the ugliest Town hall building in the country. It looks like some stupid space age lunar building. Or it looks like the cooling fins on a concrete Harley Davidson motor cycle engine.

Someone told me that the bed bugs just got a $50,000.00 a year raise, and they have only been in townhall for a month . Seems to be a pattern.

"Not to worry - because of a shared services agreement the bedbugs will be in the Toms River Town Hall next week."

Just smoke em out. Choom
