Toronto leads Canada in bed bugs, but COVID crawls back …

Toronto was listed as the top bed bug city in 2020 among 25 Canadian cities, according to Orkin Canadas annual bed bug report. Photo by ORKIN CANADA /ORKIN CANADA

However, Orkin Canada said its expected that once the economy reopens, bed bugs cases will rise again.

Due to their ability to double in population about every 16 days, it should not be difficult for bed bugs to regain their grip on the Canadian market, the company said.

Behind Toronto in the top 10, in order, are Sudbury, Oshawa, Vancouver, Winnipeg, St. Johns, Scarborough, Whitby, Edmonton and Ottawa.

Compared to the previous year, Toronto and Vancouver kept their No. 1 and 4 spots respectively, while Ottawa fell from 5 to 10 and Whitby rose from 20 to 8.

The survey results are based on the number of commercial and residential bed bug treatments carried out by the company from Jan. 1 to Dec. 31, 2020.

Toronto Public Health didnt provide a comment about the survey, but directed media to the city website that provides instructions for preparing an insect sample for bed bug identification. It said the three steps are prevention, identification and treating the problem.

It is possible for anyone to have an infestation of bed bugs, regardless of income or housing. Bed bugs and bed bug infestations are not considered a health hazard, the department says on the website. However, secondary health concerns include skin infections and allergic reactions from insect bites, as well as the stress and anxiety of dealing with extreme infestations.

People can use proactive prevention tips such as careful examination of bags and clothing, drying potentially infested bed linens or clothing on the highest heat setting, and inspecting all second-hand or returning office furniture, said Orkin Canada.

Orkin Canada: Saskatchewan bed bug numbers down in 2020 …

Bed bug numbers have dropped in Saskatchewan and across Canada according to a 2020 study done by pest control company, Orkin Canada.

The annual study saw a 20-per cent decrease in bud bug reports, the largest dip theyve seen in its five-year history.

A local spokesperson believes that those numbers have been directly impacted due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

(The bed bugs) typically will hitchhike and move with their hosts, which unfortunately we are, Orkin Saskatchewan branch manager Justin Browne said.

With that reduction (of moving location to location), and people being quarantined theres been less ability for bed bugs to move around.

Like the rest of the country Saskatchewan has seen a drop in reported bed bug cases, but this year also marked the first time that the province had two cities make the list, with Saskatoon coming in at 23, and Regina 24.

When you get into some of the more denser populations, where people are more in condos, theres more opportunity to spread because they are home more, Browne said.

2020 marks the third year that the Bridge City appeared on the list, landing at 22 in both 2017, and 2019.

While this marks just the second appearance for the Queen City, Regina also came in at 22 back in 2018.

Two Pa. cities in top 20 of Orkins bed bug infestation list – pennlive.com

Even though fewer people traveled in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic, bed bugs did not get the memo to stay home.

Chicago topped Orkins Top 50 Bed Bug Cities List for last year with Baltimore and Washington, D.C., coming in second and third.

Orkin said it bases it list on treatment data from the metro areas where Orkin performed the mostbed bug treatmentsfromDecember 1, 2019November 30, 2020. The ranking includes both residential and commercial treatments.

Unfortunately, Pennsylvania has two cities in the top 20 - Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. Philadelphia dropped two places from last year, so that is good news.

Here are the rankings after Chicago, Baltimore and Washington, D.C.:

4. Detroit

5. Columbus, Ohio

6. Cleveland, Ohio

7. Indianapolis

8. Cincinnati

9. Los Angeles

10. Grand Rapids, Mich.

11. Charlotte, N.C.

12. New York City

13. Atlanta

14. Philadelphia

15. Champaign, Ill.

16. Dallas

17. Raleigh, N.C.

18. Charleston, W.Va.

19. Pittsburgh

20. Denver

According to Orkin the bed bugs can still be lurking waiting for people to resume travel.

Its easy to forget that bed bugs are still very much a threat and should be top of mind for anyone who is itching to take a trip. Bed bugs can survive for several months while waiting for their next blood meal, so theyre likely to emerge when a food source, humans, become available, Orkin said.

Typically, bed bugs are 3/16 inch long and are mostly nocturnal insects that come out of hiding to take blood meals from sleeping humans and are red to dark brown in color. Bed bugs are hematophagous, which means blood is their only food source. They can travel from place to place with ease, including items such as luggage, purses and other personal belongings.

Orkin recommends these steps to inspect for bed bugs using the acronym - S.L.E.E.P.

Here is the rest of the list:

21. Flint, Mich.

22. San Francisco

23. Greenville, S.C.

24. Norfolk

25. St. Louis

26. Richmond, Va.

27. Toledo, Ohio

28. Dayton, Ohio

29. Buffalo, N.Y.

This northern Ontario city is one of Canada’s top 10 for bed bugs – CTV Toronto

SUDBURY -- A city in northern Ontario has topped a list that no one wants to be on, Orkin Canada's top 10 bed bug cities.

Sudbury has taken the No. 2 spot behind Toronto for the most commercial and residential bed bug treatments carried out by a Canadian pest control company in 2020.

However, there is a bright spot, as the company said in a news release that bed bug sightings are down close to 20 per cent nationally when compared to the previous year.

"Travel bans, stay-at-home orders, and a general shift to working remotely have resulted in less opportunities for these hitchhikers to move around, for the first time since Orkin Canada released its annual survey five years ago," the pest control company said.

However, there is a risk for bed bugs spreading as the economy opens back up again.

"Beware of the return of borrowed office chairs," Orkin said. "Due to their ability to double in population about every 16 days, it should not be difficult for bed bugs to regain their grip on the Canadian market."

There are some tips to prevent bed bugs:

The top 10 Canadian cities with the most bed bug calls are:

Some of the changes from the previous year include, Toronto and Vancouver staying in the same spots, Ottawa fell from No. 5 to No. 10, and Whitby rose from No. 20 to No.8.

Bed bug sightings plummet in Canada as COVID-19 makes it harder for them to spread – ABC17News.com

Click here for updates on this story

OTTAWA, Ontario (CTV News) Of the very few good things to come out of the COVID-19 pandemic, bed bug sightings plummeted in 2020.

In a report released on Tuesday from Orkin Canada, bed bug sightings dropped by 20 per cent in 2020, marking the first decline in the five-year history of the report.

Bernie Grafe, Orkin Canadas branch manager for the Greater Toronto Area residential division, said the pandemic is the primary factor behind the decline.

Bed bugs are hitchhikers, he said in a phone interview with CTVNews.ca. As people move around and visit, travel, go to work, go to public places, hotels, long-term rentals, you name it, they are essentially transporting the bed bugs around.

Youre not seeing a lot of people congregating in higher percentages and areas, so therefore the bed bugs are just not spreading.

Grafe said this is a trend Orkin Canada is seeing nationwide, but warned that this decline may go away when the pandemic ends.

Once the lockdown is released and one day there is a sense of normalcy, we will again see that spike go up just from that natural social behaviour, he said.

Bed bugscan lie dormant for several months at a time, meaning bugs in an office may still be alive when office work resumes.

People going back to work who havent been in to these environments for the last eight, nine, 10 months, those bed bugs are going to be hungry, he said.

Grafe said there arent any chemical treatments available that can prevent bed bugs from entering the home, meaning vigilance is the best method to keep them from spreading.

The biggest form of prevention is awareness, and that is through inspections and visually inspecting the environment that youre in, especially with hotels and long-term rentals, he said.

Grafe said its key to inspect the bed, behind picture frames and curtains for any bugs or fecal matter that the bugs may have left behind. He also recommends a thorough inspection of your office setting.

The report also included the Top 25 cities for bed bugs in Canada, with Toronto topping the list, followed by Sudbury, Oshawa, Vancouver and Winnipeg.
