Cincinnati leaders are looking at new ways to control bed bugs. On Thursday the health department is hosting a bed bug conference.
More than 400 people are expected to learn about the latest ways to prevent and eradicate the bugs. They'll also talk about ways that landlords can help keep bugs from making a home in their buildings. Bed bug cases are expected to rise by 35% this year in Cincinnati.
The conference starts at 8am Thursday morning at the Duke Energy Center.
