Philadelphians are hosting more bedbug brothers than any other city in the U.S.

The City of Brotherly Love welcomes a multitude of new brothers: bedbugs.

Philadelphia has finally topped the list and beat New York City, its number one competitor, to win the dubious honor of 2012s most bedbug-infested city in the United States.

When pest control company Terminix released its annual list on Monday, Philly came out on top. Cities honored for the first time as part of the Top 15 included Cleveland, Houston, Indianapolis, Miami and New Haven. The national bedbug epidemic began a few years ago and appears not to be abating anytime soon. Terminix says there has been a steady increase of bedbug buddies in most states since its first report in 2010. And with the influx of summer travelers in the coming months, Philadelphia should watch out.

So what do you do to keep the bedbugs from biting? Terminix offers a few tips: Hang all clothing, vacuum suitcases after you get home from travel and check you bed for bugs, bug shells and dark blood spots.
