Bedbugs Aren’t Just Back, They’re Spreading : NPR
Bedbugs! (Note: I’m not posting a picture; google images for the critters, ’nuff said!)

“I find all bugs mysterious, wonderful. These ones I tend to find a little bit despicable. But they’re fascinating in their own regard.“This business of feeding on other people — the ectoparasitic life — I think we all know some people that do that, don’t we now? And maybe bedbugs aren’t so awfully different than somebody we know,” he says. “So, there’s a little bit of us in them, perhaps.”
UNQUOTE
Interesting to think they used to be ubiquitous.

The comments to that bedbug post are at least a little bit frightening.
Yes, especially the ones about the difficulty of getting rid of these pests once you have them. Ugh… /shudder!
