Raleigh has got bugs - BED BUGS !

Bed bugs are all the rage now. For anyone who travels a lot it is good to be in tune to what is becoming an epidemic of itchy proportions. For anyone interested Orkin did a "Top 50 Bed Bug Cities" recently and Raleigh just about made the top 25 (fortunately I do not care about Raleigh, since, well, I do not sleep in hotels in Raleigh!). However, I do visit Washington, D.C. quite a bit and it made it on the list at #6 in the country.

Here is the list: Orkin's Top 50 Bed Bug Cities

There is a lot of information (and mis-information) out there on bed bugs. If you are interested in a good website with some practical information (recommended by a really smart pest management specialist!!) check this one out: NCSU Entomology Urban Pests = bed bugs.

Mr. Wonderful

Yes, I have more photos. No, I have not uploaded them yet.

But I will soon!

When did it become okay to not simply say "I was wrong"?** updared

Do I need to say more?

(ok,ok. I have to at least say THIS GUY IS A FREAKING IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

For another look, an article from Slate. This one is actually pretty well written.

Better late than never. Right?

Ok, I am not good about updates, so you will have to enjoy the old photos here. But I bet, even though these are 4 weeks old, you will still LOVE 'em!!
