While the press still pays no attention to the building with the thousands, possible millions of bedbugs, it pays attention to non-commital hype put out by politicians. The New York Daily News on 28 July had a small article, titled "City is biting back at pesky bugs", by Samuel Goldsmith and Adam Lisberg. It said that there would be a bug czar, but when it was not clear; neither did it say how much money was going into this game, as City Coucilwoman Gale Brewer (Upper West Side) could not tell the reporters.
What was mentioned that was telling was the fact that Gil Bloom, who is an advisory board member, is president of Standard Pest Management in Long Island City. So if bedbugs persist in the thousands of apartments, this guy makes money. It they stomp out the bug, he loses out. So no wonder the city is dragging its feet. My loud and plaintive cries for them to do something about this cell of jihadi bugs on 8th Avenue are being ignored while people involved make money, and could stand to make billions out of an epidemic.
