Chicago bedbug crackdown needs work, aldermen say - chicagotribune.com: "Chicago landlords, tenant advocates and aldermen agreed Tuesday that the city needs to take on a proliferating bedbug population but failed to agree on the approach.
The bedbug issue surfaced during a three-hour hearing held by two City Council committees mulling a proposed ordinance that would allow fines of up to $1,000 a day against landlords who fail to take the required steps to wipe out bedbug infestations.
“Bedbugs are a serious problem, regardless of economic stature, and the city of Chicago has the authority to declare a public nuisance and regulate it,” said Brian Bernardoni, the government affairs director for associations that represent real estate agents, building owners and managers. “The issue must be addressed head on.”"

If you think you are suffering from bed bug bites, or if you have seen a strange bug or other signs, the photos below will help you determine if you have them. (Remember also that other problems can look like bed bug bites, so be sure and rule those out. See this FAQ if you need help detecting bed bugs.)
Obviously, you might find the bugs themselves! They can look vastly different based on life stage (there are 5 nymph stages and one adult stage) and whether they’ve fed recently or not. For reference, see the following bed bug life cycle images.
