It’s enough to keep you awake all night

Posted on June 16, 2012 by toronto Click Here For Article

The coast is now clear at Cedar and Afton avenues, but the pile of bed bug-infested trash dumped in the residential east-end neighbourhood has residents and city staff shuddering about the bed bug problem.

Its a problem Hamilton and other cities in Ontario say would be a lot easier to tackle with provincial funding that ran out in March.

The funding stopped as if the problem had been solved and, of course, it hadnt been, said NDP poverty critic Cheri DiNovo.

The provincial government doled out $5 million in 2011 to public health departments across Ontario to combat the bugs. But it was a one-time deal when the money dried up in March, so did the resources, which included advertising and educational outreach projects.

There needs to be simpler access to information people are in the dark about the proper way to deal with it, said Cedar Avenue resident Heather Clayton.

Clayton was horrified Wednesday after tenants in the building across from her house, near Gage Street and Cumberland avenue, fled their infested apartment and left their bug-ridden belongings all over the buildings lawn.

City staff agree the community desperately needs those information resources, said Matt Lawson, a manager in Hamiltons public health department.

Information is the key in this fight. The more people know about it, the more often they wont get confused or angry and throw their stuff out on the lawn.

A large part of Hamiltons funding was also used to help vulnerable members of the community (the elderly and people with disabilities or mental health problems) prepare their units for spraying.

But the city has never had a special collection program for infested trash. So, where should it go?

The rest is here:

Landlord will clean tenants' mess

Posted on June 15, 2012 by Pest Controller Click Here For Article

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.

Posted on June 15, 2012 by pcenet Click Here For Article

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.
