Area residents have gotten used to delayed trains and broken escalators, but bed bugs? Yep, Metro’s headquarters has got those too, reports the Examiner:

Exterminators were brought in after bed bugs were found two weeks ago on the third floor of the building on Fifth Street Northwest, in an area that employees say houses information technology offices but no actual beds or sleeping areas.

It was not clear how extensively the persistent pests have dug in at the agency. Metro initially said it found one bed bug, but memos to workers discussed multiple bugs.

Bed bugs aren’t only found in the home, it seems, and plenty of office buildings have them: 38 percent, according to the National Pest Management Association. As for buses and trains, they say, don’t be surprised to find bed bugs there too—this is a large urban area, after all.
