Worst cities for bed bugs: Here’s where New York City ranks

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — As more Americans begin to travel during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, bed bugs are also hitching rides across the country — and some cities are seeing a surge in bed bugs more than others.
Orkin, a company that provides essential pest control services, ranked the cities where bed bugs have been most reported. Its list is based on treatment data from the metro areas where Orkin performed the most bed bug treatments from Dec. 1, 2020, through Nov. 30, 2021. The ranking includes both residential and commercial treatments.
So where does New York City rank on Orkin’s 2022 Top 50 Bed Bug Cities List?
New York ranks third, according to the list — up nine spots from 2021′s list.
Chicago and Philadelphia took the number one and two spots, respectively.
As consumers plan to travel this year, Orkin reminds Americans that bed bugs are still very much a threat. And taking into consideration the staffing shortages in the hospitality industry, it’s possible that bed bugs are not being monitored as often as desired, which is why diligent examination is key, Orkin says.
Bed bugs are typically 3/16 inch long, red to dark brown in color and are mostly nocturnal insects that come out of hiding to take blood meals from sleeping humans, according to Orkin. They are hematophagous, which means blood is their only food source. They can travel from place to place with ease, clinging to items such as luggage, purses and other personal belongings.
“Bed bugs are a concern for everyone because they are master hitchhikers, traveling home with people when they likely don’t realize it,” said Ben Hottel, an Orkin entomologist. “Their nature of hiding in difficult-to-find cracks and crevices can make them hard to control, which is why involving a trained professional at the sight of an introduction is recommended.”
The pests are known for rapid population growth as females can deposit one to five eggs a day and may lay 200 to 500 eggs in their lifetime. They can survive for several months while waiting for their next blood meal, so they’re likely to emerge when a food source, like humans, become available.
Here are the top 10 bed bug cities, according to Orkin. The numbers in parentheses indicate if a city has ranked higher or lower than last year’s list.
Chicago
Philadelphia (+12)
New York (+9)
Detroit
Baltimore (-3)
Indianapolis (+1)
Washington, DC (-4)
Cleveland, OH (-2)
