According to Pets.org, New Orleans, LA has the highest roach infestation not only in Louisiana but in the entire United States. It's quite a startling statistic, and it makes you wonder what factors contribute to such a prevalence of roaches in the city.

Their website says,'' New Orleans tops the list with more than 41 percent of residents reporting seeing cockroaches. The city is a hotbed for them, too, with water completely surrounding the city, sewage systems dating back to the early 1900s, and temperatures consistently ranging from the 70s to the 90s. Even the small snaps of cold weather New Orleans occasionally sees don’t help. "If you have a population in a building, and the building has heat, it won't matter at all," says entomologist Zack Lemann.''

i am old enough to remember the video from one of the popular places in the quarter (masperos maybe?) where they were filming DOZENS of rats through the window running around inside all over everything.

Wait…that’s it? Like reporting seeing one at all? Or infestation?

I mean, we keep a clean house and have a pest control company, and I still a big one every now and then in the Birmingham suburbs.
