| | | Strange Bug
Hi all.
Im having a problem with a bunch of bugs that are invading my home. They seem to appear in the evening around lamp, wooden panelling and my sofa. This has been happening for the 3 weeks.
They appear around 10 - 15 at a time and seem keen on my wooden panel and the lamp. But they show no fear and climb on you, my partner found one in her bra. They also seem to change in colour from red to brown.
I have added a picture for you all to see that may help identify them. These must be around 1mm in length and they do have wings as well. Sorry that my camera is not that great and zooming, i have tried my best.
I wonder if you lot may know what these are. Many thanks.  
If you know what they are , id be more than grateful to know as the problem is getting worse and driving me mad. Many thanks.

Morning Jo and Nick,
It looks like the Biscuit Beetle, known as Stegobium paniceum in Latin. Probably found in every street! Pictures were obviously very helpful, so thanks.
Take care, Jason  |

The bottom one looks like a Common furniture beetle
I took pics of a mating pair outside a few days ago, under a Camellia leaf. I hope they stay outside!
