One thing about the places you shop, you want to at least know that you are going to be safe while shopping there.
Not just safe from some maniac coming into the store and terrorizing the customers, but from things you cannot see.
It’s the reason that a lot of stores now have those wipes that you can use when you come in and out of the store.
I got really sick from something two years ago and to be honest I still use them. It’s the reason why I wash my hands whenever I go somewhere. The bottom line, you can defend against something you can see. What about something you cannot?
Walmart has never earned the reputation of being one of the cleanest stores in the United States.
Because so many people visit each Walmart location every day and every week, there are a lot of dirty hands touching everything and anything. But one particular Walmart location takes the cake when it comes to lack of cleanliness, and, as a result, the Pennsylvania location has been forced to have a partial closure of its store when bed bugs were found in the men’s fitting rooms.
Because the store manager found bedbugs inside of a closed pill bottle left inside the pocket of a boy’s jacket, they immediately called the police. The jacket was for sale and left in the changing area with the bottle of bedbugs inside of it. This led the store manager to suspect that someone was trying to plant bedbugs in the Walmart location. Could it have been an agent sent by Target or Costco? Or was it just some deranged Pennsylvania local?
Following the call to the police, the pill bottle of bloodsuckers was sent to Ecolab. They confirmed by the next day that the critters in the bottle were bedbugs. Ecolab also saw specimens of the bugs crawling around the men’s fitting area, which indicated that the bugs were not just in the pill bottle but had escaped as well. The Walmart location in question is located at 108 Washington Towne Boulevard and must be avoided at all costs until the infestation is completely managed.
“We take this seriously and are looking into this,” a corporate spokesperson for Walmart said. “We are fully cooperating with law enforcement on their investigation.”
Walmart does not like it when people mess with their business operation. They’re a Fortune 10 company that has a lot of money to throw around to get to the bottom of such a crime. That’s why Walmart is working with police and doing everything in their power to identify who might have planted the bedbugs in their profitable locations.
