I'd caution against using apartmentpeople.com. They use a lease that violates Chicago Rental Law. Stick to a landlord that use a Standard Chicago Lease to protect yourself, or at least familiar yourself with this lease. If you're attending the SAIC you don't need to live in the loop. Checkout neighborhoods like Logan Square and Bucktown which are off the Blue Line and have lots of other SAIC students.

Apple cider vinegar works well for fruit flies, but for gnats carried in on outdoor plants we had a lot of success using sand. Put an inch or more of sand on the exposed soil to prevent eggs from being laid and avoid over watering. When the gnats die cycle out the sand and soil. Good luck!
