New York City is now rated Number One city for bed bugs, but the rest of the United States is also infected. “It's the biggest pest problem we've encountered in several generations,” Bob Rosenberg, Vice President of Government Affairs for the National Pest Management Association told The Washington Post. In fact, beyond New York, one of the biggest hot spots for bed bugs is Ohio where Governor Ted Strickland wrote a June 30th letter to the Environmental Protection Agency saying, “The bed bug problem has created a very real physical, emotional and economically devastating situation for many Ohioans.” One Dayton, Ohio apartment complex owner spent more than $180,000 trying to clean up his buildings, but the bugs come back.

Bed bugs are in Austin Texas as well, we wound up picking them up from Connecticut, it been almost two years since we got them. But the bug guy also says they have been in Austin for a dew years now downtown.
They are starting to taper off with all the vacuuming and bombing we had been doing, thank god for winters they slow the bugs down and sucking them up is easier.

Bed Bugs?

You wanna come here and see some of the bugs we got, we call them "Humans". Though, that term is used lightly when refering to them.
