• Routine pest control has been completed recently and the whole exterior of the home has been sprayed. Ongoing routine pest control will continue to occur as scheduled.
• A deep clean of the carpets has commenced. 
• Surveillance monitoring of symptoms and epidemiological data is collected. 
• Resident GPs have completed a review and provided advice on the management plan.
• Dermatologists have been contacted for specialist advice. However it has been difficult to locate a dermatologist to visit site. If you wish to attend a dermatologist appointment you can consult with the GP for a referral and request a family member to take you to an appointment.
