Bed bug cases growing across the Tri-State

There's a creepy-crawly problem spreading through the Tri-State, and it may be something that's not even on your radar yet, but it should be.

Pest control companies from across the tri-state say the same thing - bed bugs are here, and the number of cases is rising every day.

In hopes of reducing the problem, one K-9 detection business is doing a new service.

They're words that are, to some, just a saying.

Telia Ditzer, who lives here in Evansville, quickly learned that's not the case.

She took her son to the doctor after he started getting what looked like bug bites that kept coming back.

The doctor told her they were bed bug bites.

Ditzer called in K-9 Detection Services to search her house, and she says what they found wasn't pleasant. It was a bed bug infestation.

"They were in the crevices of my couch," Ditzer said. "They were in the crevices of my bed."

Ditzer says she has some relief knowing she isn't alone.
