Guess which US city has the most bed bugs, according to the Orkin Man

1/19/2013

Depending on whom you source, America’s bedbug capital is either Philadelphia, or a new contender: Chicago. According to pest control company Orkin, Chicago has crawled atop the list of most bedbug-ridden city in the U.S., a distinction that no city wants. The list is hardly scientific: It's determined by the number of exterminations Orkin performed in 2012, and according to the bug zappers, the Windy City topped the list, climbing from second place in 2011. The biggest increase on the 50-city list was made by Charleston/Huntington, W. Va., which moved up 18 spots to No. 31. Honolulu made the biggest drop, falling 19 spots to No. 37. [Source]
