In their puzzlingly titled piece, Despite Task Force, NYC Bedbug Complaints Way Up, well, we just don’t know where this is coming from:
Back in January of 2008, New York City announced it was creating a bedbug task force to help deal with the problem and help educate residents on how to avoid an infestation. The task force was put together after NYC received 7,000 complaints in 2007.
If only.
What was announced in January 2008 was a series of Department of Housing Preservation and Development bed bug seminars.
Sorry, no task force.
Yeah, I caught that one too.
