We are pleased that Council Member Gale Brewer is acknowledged by The New York Times in today’s editorial as the driving force in an effort to get bed bug legislation on the books in our city—an effort that began in 2005:
We hope Ms. Brewer, other Council members and state lawmakers — and the mayor — will press for better training and more rigorous certification of exterminators, more public education about these pests, tougher standards for used furniture and a task force to figure out how to stay ahead of an army that seems to be growing every year.
We are doing more than hoping that Ms. Brewer will be successful this year. You can help! Come this way to read about Intro 873, the new bed bug education bill in the New York City Council.
