It wasnt bed bugs or crabs.....but some kind of mite on an overnight apparently they treat everything the same with a cream but still annoying. You get like mosquito bites but a lot of them and they itch. Long story short some hotels suck......

Im thinking it was the country inn and suites in Kalamazoo but it may have been the laquinta in Moline. I would guess the one in kalamazoo though first.

Here's what you do for the crabs:

1. Shave one side of the "affected area".
2. Set the hair on the non-shaved side afire.
3. Stab the little critters wth an ice pick when they are runn over to the shaved side.

Had to do it all the time in the Navy.

Puckhead-

I know what you are talking about in AZO!! I got snowed in there one night after a long-XC diversion. Talked to some guy at the FBO and he said some of the airline guys stay at this place.

Being one for conversation, I decide sure, why not. Walk in, get a room...........bingo.....

A week (+/-) later I've got the cream. I have always been convinced it happened there, you have now confirmed my thoughts.
