if you think your chances of getting bed bugs is slim to none - except if you pay a visit to mega-metropolitan area like New York City - think again. Right here in the Alamo City the freaky little unwanted pests are popping up.

UTSA says they have detected a few of these tiny biters on campus at the University Oaks, Chisholm Hall and Laurel Village residence facilities. They say three confirmed cases were resolved, and a fourth is currently being treated.

University officials sent out email notices to students in both the affected facilities and also to those living in unaffected residence halls.

With the health and safety of our students in mind, we are working with a local extermination firm to resolve the bed bug issue in one of our residence facilities, said Lionel Maten, UTSA director of housing and residence life. The firm has worked with universities across the region to remediate bed bug incidents and is going above and beyond our protocol in the affected facility. We anticipate resolving the issue today, March 21.

UTSA says here are some identifying signs that you too have been visited by bed bugs:

UTSA students who believe they have been bitten by bed bugs may get treatment at the UTSA Student Health Services on the main and downtown campuses.

The Texas Department of State Health Services has more information on bed bugs on their website.

L.A. places No. 5 on list of 'Top 50 Bed Bug Cities'

Posted on March 22, 2012 by admin Click Here For Article

The bed bugs are alive and biting in Los Angeles, so much so the city vaulted Wednesday into the top five of an exterminators Top 50 Bed Bug Cities List.

According to the pest-control company Orkin, Los Angeles climbed 25 spots to place No. 5 in its annual list of bug-infested cities.

Cincinnati and Chicago held on to the top spots, finishing No.1 and 2 respectively, but several large metropolitan areas such as Los Angeles showed increases in the number of bed-bug treatments in 2011.

The Bay Area, for example, jumped 35 spots on the top-50 list to No. 12.

I think everybody in the county ought to be concerned, Harrison said. You have to be cautious where you travel and not stay in hotels where you have bed bugs. The worry isnt as much about getting bit as it is about bringing them into the home.

Harrison said bed bugs carry human pathogens and can leave itchy welts on victims but do not carry diseases. He estimatedOrkin has treated thousands of homes and businesses in California, and the company owns only about a 20% market share.

Orkins study reportedthe bed-bug extermination business was up 33.6% last year. Harrison said treatments in Los Angeles range from several hundred dollars to more than $1,000.

If you find yourself in a situation with an infestation, its not pleasant, he said. Changing your life for months is not fun.

The Northern California cities of Sacramento, Stockton and Modesto were grouped together for the study and collectively finished 41st. It was the third and final California area on the top 50 list.
