Some Interesting Statistics About Infestation in NYC

As we may suspect the amount of pest infestation in a home is correlated to the living conditions.  Nevertheless, even though the residents may be clean, the location of the home/building also plays a very important factor in the amount of infestation for reasons that you are able to imagine. The most desirable nighborhoods in NYC are also the most expensive and the least likely to have infestation issues. However, it seems that for residents of Washignton Heights, East Harlem (where there is a high number of Latino and or Black population) rodents and pests co-exists side by side aww. None of this is surpricing, good to keep in mind next time you are planning to move within the city.
