Landlord will clean tenants' mess

Heather Clayton has been patrolling the sidewalk at the corner of Cedar and Afton avenues for the past two days, waving a can of spray paint and warning passersby to keep off the neighbour's lawn.

She's been on a mission after putting up big signs around the lawn in east Hamilton near Cumberland and Gage streets that warn: BED BUGS! KEEP OFF!

The reason for her vigilance is a collection of old furniture, cardboard boxes and other junk left on the front of the rental property across the street all infested with bed bugs. She's worried those bugs are going to spread from people rummaging through the trash, or pets dragging it onto the road toward her house across the street.

Landlord Yacub Lahdo said Thursday night he was on his way to remove the garbage. He has owned the building for eight years and said he wants a clean and bug-free property as much as his tenants do.

Clayton's been through it all before her daughter and grandchildren had to get rid of most of their belongings and were forced to move in with her in September after an infestation broke out at their apartment. There are now eight family members spanning four generations living in the house.

I was my daughter's safety net but if they get in my house, then what do I do? she said.

Nicole Constantinides, 19, lives in an upper unit of the building, two attached houses divided into six apartments. She said she and her nine-month-old son Maddox are stuck there.

They haven't seen any bugs, but the landlord had the unit sprayed just in case. Other tenants also young mothers have gone to stay with family during the spraying, but that wasn't an option for Constantinides.

I stayed at my mom's last night but she has a full house. The other tenant, she's staying with her parents but lucky her, she said. I don't have anywhere else to go.

All of her furniture is on the balcony and the pest control company has to return in two weeks for a second round.

Study: D.C. bed bug problem increasingly worse

WASHINGTON - Yet again, D.C. ranks high among cities that leave its visitors with a souvenir they'd rather forget.

A new Terminix survey lists D.C. as the sixth-most bed bug-infested city in America. This marks a decline from a previous commercial study that put the District at No. 8.

The City of Brotherly Love took top honors, with Cincinnati and the Big Apple right behind.

The list was created using information from 300 Terminix branches throughout the country. The extermination company then ranked cities based on calls from customers and confirmed reports by their exterminators, according to PRNewswire.

Check out the top 10:

1. Philadelphia 2. Cincinnati 3. New York City 4. Chicago 5. Detroit 6. Washington, D.C. 7. Columbus, Ohio 8. San Francisco 9. Denver 10. New Haven, Conn.

These standings show bed bugs continue their reign as scourge of the American public, with five new cities in the top 15 this year: Cleveland, Houston, Indianapolis, Miami and New Haven, Conn.

D.C. was among five other cities that have seen a growing population of the bloodsuckers, along with Columbus, Dallas, Philadelphia and San Francisco. the District was ranked seventh in 2011.

The prevalence of bed bugs has increased as much as 500 percent in the last decade, according to a study from Ohio State University, whose home state has three cities with the worst incidence of the problem pests.

Statistic You Probably Didn't Want to Hear: More Bed Bugs in D.C.

Bad news for all your nocturnal hours. There's a new study out ranking U.S. cities based on bed bug populations, and D.C. has moved up the chart in just a few short months.

In March, D.C. had the nation's eighth-highest population of bed bugs, according to a study by Orkin, the pest extermination company. But now, WTOP reports, D.C. has climbed to No. 6.

This is just more unsettling news about creepy crawlies wriggling their way around our mattresses and bedding while we slumber. Last month, it was reported that in addition to being increasingly common in apartment buildings, bed bugs are also squirming their way into the Washington area's single-family homes.

The study released today, compiled from information obtained by Terminix, puts D.C. in a group of six cities where the bed bug population is on an observable upswing. Philadelphia is No. 1, followed by Cincinnati, New York, Chicago and Detroit.

And the study comes with yet another reminder that while they don't carry any known diseases, bed bugs are tough to stamp out, WTOP reports:

"Bedbugs are among the most difficult and expensive urban pests to control. It typically takes a professional to do it right," says Susan Jones, an urban entomologist with the university's Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center and a household and structural pest specialist.
