Top 10: “Buggiest Cities” in the US

“You can run, but you can’t hide.”

It’s a well-known fact that insects are EVERYWHERE… from rural locations to sprawling cities, from mosquitoes to scorpions to mayflies, every spot in the US has its fair share of pest issues… especially as warm summer months kick into full gear and bring plenty of sunshine-filled days. These longer, warmer days encourage more bugs to make their presence known… and they often do it with buzzing, biting, and bothering us in general.

Recently, the National Pest Management Association compiled the list of the “Top 10 Buggiest Cities,” based on traffic to their website (www.pestworld.org).

The “Top Ten Buggiest Cities” break down as:

1. New York
2. Los Angeles
3. Chicago
4. Washington, DC
5. Philadelphia
6. Atlanta
7. Boston
8. San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose
9. Dallas-Ft. Worth
10. Houston

“While these 10 cities may be the buggiest, pests are plentiful in every city and state. As Americans spend more time outdoors during the summer months, we encourage them to take precautions to protect themselves, their families and their pets from the multitude of health risks posed by pests,” noted Missy Henriksen, vice president of public affairs for the NPMA.
