The mosquito has been called the Louisiana state bird. I would call it a love/hate relationship, but it's all hate.Orkin has released their list of "Top 50 Mosquito Cities" and Lafayette has claimed a spot on the list.

Holding down the number one spot on the list is good ole Atlanta. Rounding out the top five is Washington D.C., Chicago, New York and Miami - Fort Lauderdale. Three Louisiana cities made the list - 

27. New Orleans
32. Lafayette
40. Baton Rouge

We all know how many mosquitoes we have to deal with here in South Louisiana, imagine what it's like in Atlanta.

To see the entire top 50 list, head over to yahoo.com.
