TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — New Jersey officials say dryer sheets have been placed in the bathrooms of Trenton's city welfare office in an effort to prevent bedbugs from spreading.
The Trentonian reports (

There's no scientific evidence that dryer sheets repel bedbugs, but Social Services Director Barbara Buckley says
they're hoping the bedbugs will cling to the dryer sheets. o_O
Buckley says people who are exposed to the bugs will be sent to an occupational health doctor. She says the office is under a regular extermination schedule.
Buckley says bugs are a constant issue at the office because they have so many visitors.
