Dallas was the worst in Texas coming in at number 17. Houston almost missed being on the list but still came in at number 44.

Orkin Uses Data From Where They Go The Most

Orkin makes this list using data from where they performed the most bed bug treatments. Bed bugs are just the worst, and once they are embedded in an area they are hard to get rid of completely.

Bed bugs are super invasive travel companions, and you have to really watch where you stay. They can get in your clothes, and you could take them right back home with you.

The worst part about them is that you are their only food source. If you notice small red or brown dots on your sheets it's a long process to get rid of them.

Don't Take These Travelers Home With You

These bugs will even take shelter in that book you left all day on the bedside table while you were out.
