Bugs on our window ledges?
Question:Me and my GF have noticed tiny bugs on our window ledges i have looked online but cannot identify them.
Smaller than an average ant, with even smaller almost invisible baby ones.
6 legs, 2 antenee, and jump when touched or blown, very fragile looking too.
I know they are not fleas as i have seen these close hand, they almost look like very small woodlouse!
Anyone have any ideas or websites where i could identify them?
Cheers
Answers:
I don't know a whole lot about bugs, other than I HATE them. However, have you tried looking on this website?
www.whatsthatbug.com
It is a great resource and has tons of pictures broken down into categories for easier identification (i.e. centipedes, spiders).
The only thing you will not find on that website is how to get rid of any kind of bug (the site is run by entomologists, which means they are definitely Pro-Life for bugs!). However, once you find the name, you could Google how to get rid of them, if that's what you're interested in doing.
they could be silver fish they like damp places
From your description they are either springtails or thrips.
