The Dayton area jumped four spots on Orkins just released Bed Bug Cities List.

The Gem City ranks 7th on the pest control companys list for 2013.

Cities were ranked by the number of bed bug treatments Orkin performed from January to December 2013.

The Cleveland-Akron-Canton area ranked sixth, an increase of two places from the previous poll. It was just below Cincinnati, which is in fifth place. Columbus ranks third on the list followed by Los Angeles and

Chicago in first place.

Bill Wharton of Public Health Dayton and Montgomery County said the number of bed bug calls his agency receives have not increased.

We are staying where we were last years, Wharton said.

Because the tiny pests that feed on human blood and often hide in beds dont carry diseases, health departments dont keep exact counts of complaints.
