Brown tiny bugs?


Question:I keep finding these brown tiny bugs in my bedroom. There are lots of them now so please help! I have never seen any of them on the bed and they look different than bed bugs and they are a little bigger...some of them are way bigger. They are usually under the bed, or walking near the cables...dark and dusty places and almost always on the floor. I dust a lot but it doesnt help much. They have never bitten anyone either, as far as I know. So what kind of bugs can they be and how can i get rid of them? I would really appreciate it if you also share any pics of the bugs if you have any...

Answers:
With your description, it is a little hard to tell you what they are, but I have some guess(es) that might help you...

is it cigarette beetles? or some sort of weevil?

I have had cigarette beetles on occasion, and it usually requires putting ALL of the grains/cereals/flour/etc. into the fridge until they go away. Strangely, if there are no grains for them to eat, they seem to go after floral scented items (even drowning in hair conditioner), which is why I imagine they may be in the dust in your room even if you don't eat in there.

I have never used chemicals, but I would bet you that an anti-flea "fogger" from the grocery store would take them out, too...a lot cheaper than an exterminator. Hopefully this at least helps you distinguish what kind of bug it is...which will help you figure out what to do. Maybe you can give more info if you don't see the bug on those pages (like does it have hairs? does it fly? does it have a weird nose like the weevils? etc.)


They could be some kind of a mite. You may try calling your county extension office to see if they can help identify the little critter.
I agree with the first answer. Call a professional and see what kind of bug.
