Bed Bugs in the News: Lexington On Onrkin Top 50 Cities For Bed Bugs

Bed bugsprobably received their common name from their habit of feeding on humans while they sleep in their beds. Bed bugs have also been called red coates, mahogany flats, and wall-lice.

Bed bugs have been a household pest issue for more than 3,300 years, dating back to ancient Egypt. They were first brought to the United States by early colonists, where they thrived for many decades. However, by the 1950s, bed bugs had been all but eradicated in the developed world, thanks to the availability of new pest control products, coupled with the widespread use of vacuums and washing machines which helped to control the spread of infestations in living spaces.

Several factors led to theresurgence of bed bugsbeginning in the late 1990s; increased international travel, more targeted pest control products and methods and a lack of public awareness about pest prevention methods.

SW Ohio ranks again for bedbug treatments

Dayton continues to rank high nationally in the number of bedbug treatments, according to a study from Orkin.

Dayton ranks seventh, while Columbus is third and Cincinnati is fifth in the number of bedbug treatments from January to December 2013.

Bedbugs are about the size and color of a flat apple seed, and are found not only on mattresses and upholstery, but in suitcases, boxes, shoes, wallpaper and headboards. They are parasitic insects of the cimicid family that feed exclusively on blood.

"While studies show that bed bugs do not spread disease, the physical and mental health consequences are well documented and of serious public concern," said Ron Harrison, Ph.D., Orkin entomologist and technical services director.

"Once bedbugs are inside your home or business, they can reproduce quickly and can travel from place to place in personal belongings and even on people. They can also move from place to place on their own, independently of objects," he said.

The list ranks cities by the number of bedbug treatments Orkin performed from January to December 2013.
