problems this year as well. We also heard an apt close to us in our building - screaming "BED bugs" at 2 am & shuffling furniture around. Bed bugs are a major problem in NYC and I recommend staying away from any building with them. The experience was horrid and very costly to us. The insecticides that are used for extermination are toxic and most of the time do not work, they will continue to come back, since the whole building would have to be done at one time and one of the better methods for getting rid of them is by heat and detecting them by dogs.
