How to solve Milwaukee's bed bug problem

They've been around forever, but when it comes to bed bugs, there's something new creeping out Milwaukee. A new bed bug ranking - and you won't believe the new tool being used to fight these pests.

They are human parasites. Who isn't creeped out by bed bugs? And according to a recent national "bed bug cities" list, Milwaukee's problem is only getting worse. But the city says, not so fast.

No bigger than a piece of rice the mere thought of this pest makes your skin crawl and crawl they do. Bed bugs like to hitchhike. In our luggage, on our clothes, living among us and many times unnoticeable.

What is being noticed? Milwaukee's spot on the latest Orkin list ranking cities with bed bugs. We jumped from the 21st spot to number 15 last year.

But Todd Weiler with Milwaukee's Department of Neighborhood Services calls it a bogus reports, saying Orkin got it wrong.

"I question the whole validity of that ranking," he said.
