| | | Insect id!!
Hi all,
I was wondering if you could help me try to identify a bug that i have found in my house recently. It is black and really small, only a mm or so and it looks to have a horn like thing on its head. We have only noticed them in the last few weeks or so but the numbers seem to be growing. They seem to be in just one room but they are spread all over the room, they don't appear to be coming from one specific place.
I am a complete novice when it comes to bugs and insects as im not really too keen on them so any help you can give would be greatly appreciated!!! I will try and get a picture but they are so small i don't know whether it would help!
Thanks

How about a wood-boring weevil or something similar? |

Evening Penny, and welcome to WAB!
Good idea, Joe - try Europhrym confine to start with Pen.
Take care, Jason  |

They do look quite similar to the wood- boring weevil, are they usually really small?
Any suggestions why they have suddenly just appeared and anything i can do to get rid of them??
Sorry about all the questions, but thanks for all your help!!!

For size, it depends on species. For the domestic situation and size - look up Barklice. |

No, its definitely not barklice, they dont have those big long feeler things! I havent noticed as many recently. We have had quite a lot of rain where i live recently, i dont know if that has brought them out?!?? |
