PLEASE help ! I've suddenly been invaded by these tiny bugs. they're all over my bedroom -- kind of near windows, but I don't have the windows open and they're fairly well sealed. if found them behind my couch, under my rug, and crawling around my wood floors and even one crawled up onto my bed. they're maybe 1/2 the size (3/4 at best) of a grain of rice. they may have wings (?) but I have not seen them fly. I have an indoor cat and have not noticed any changes with her, so i don't think they're biting. please help me figure out how to handle these guys so that I can buy maybe an ant trap or let my landlord know -- thank you so much! sorry location is Washington DC here's a photo I kind of smushed a few earlier they're so tiny to grab a photo of! imgur.com/a/2mbOgLq |

They can infest stored, dry foods such as grain, cereal, pet food, etc. They do not bite. More info - bugguide.net/node/view/376805 |
