A crawly insect emerges from a DVD return, causing a Michigan library to shut down.
A Michigan library's return bin contained various species of insects.
Over the weekend, a Michigan library was disrupted by insects that had infiltrated a return bin.
On Saturday, the Royal Oak Public Library posted on Facebook about an incident involving insects found in the book drop, which required the temporary closure of the library.
"When the DVD case was opened, the library discovered multiple species of bugs that came out."
"After closing on Friday, the DVD was returned before opening on Saturday, meaning nothing prior to that day was affected."
The library unveiled the type of bugs that infiltrated the book drop and announced its reopening on Monday afternoon.
"Our pest control company conducted a thorough inspection of all returned items, including the book drops and building, and found no insects."
"The photos we shared showed that it was a cockroach."
The Royal Oak Public Library assured its patrons that their premises had been thoroughly inspected and that there were no pest concerns to worry about in the future.
"The library undergoes regular monthly pest inspections, ensuring your safety while visiting."
The incident was met with positive reactions from the Royal Oak community, who praised the library for its transparency.
One local resident expressed gratitude for the information and precautions taken to prevent bugs.
Another person expressed gratitude for the seriousness with which you are protecting the library and its visitors.
