| | | Bug for ID please.
I've found a reddy brown bug, shaped like a grain of rice, and size - just a little smaller than a grain on rice. 6 legs on the front section of the body. It looks flat but I don't know if it's been squashed.
It was on my bedding.
I have been getting bites for a while know but have found no signs of bedbugs before.
Are these bedbugs? Or something else?
Sorry I couldn't get a picture as it was too small. |

I've just "googled" bed bugs and they look nothing like that. |

It could also be a non-biting insect that got trapped indoors... |

I would suggest a flea. They will bite humans if there's no host pet to bite. They can get in all sorts of places!
