I found these insectson my bed recently. They are very tiny like specks of dust, a black colour, and able to fly. And, I think I might have got bitten by them. The bite feels like sharp, piercing pain.
Thank you if anyone could shed a light on what it is, is it harmful, and how to get rid of them. I appreciate all kind advice.
It almost looks like a no see em bug or even a chigger. You can try putting on some mint oil on your skin to stop them from bitting you. I would make a trap or even get some flypaper to try and trap them. You can check with your local pest control company in your area and see what they recommend to spray them with to get them out of your home.
I had an issue with some like you describe. I placed a small container with some apple cider vinegar and a little bit of liquid soap on a window sill near the bed and they drown themselves in it and all were gone in a couple of days. Good luck.
I have very tiny (maybe a mm big), round moth like bugs crawling on my walls and carpet. I just saw one fly the other day. They are black and white stripped with six legs and antennas. When squished they have a powdery dust on their wings. Any idea what they are? They don't bite; they're just a nuisance.

I'm not sure what kind of bugs those are but I found the apple cider vinegar trick worked when we had a gnat infestation. Maybe that would work for you. Place a cup of apple cider vinegar near where the bugs are (a few drops of soap in the vinegar helps).
They are very tiny. Mostly attracted towards phone screen light when lights are off. Sometimes I see them on floor/walls in dim lights.
Hard to tell since it is smushed. In my house when I have things that fly to my screen they are fruit flies and that means I have potatos or fruit I left out and forgot about.
Get rid of that, and the bugs go away.
The other thing are drain flies...but those are really tiny and this looks more fruit fly sized.
Drain flies I get rid of by boiling some vinegar, putting baking soda in the drain and pouring the boiling vinegar down the pipe.
Sometimes it takes a few tries. It cleans and kills!
These bugs are everywhere in my room and the laundry room! Idk what to do or where they came from! How do I get rid of them? Thank you!
This does look like a beetle to me. There are so many variety of different beetles. In order to get rid of these it will be necessary to clean them up and vacuum them up. Lay down some sticky flypaper to trap them as they run around the room. Throw the paper away when you have quite a few of them stuck there and also lay down a new one.
Trying to figure out what these are. They come out at night mostly around our lamps and lights. And we find clear wings that theyve dropped.
Do you live where they get termites? That is what they look like to me, and when termites outgrow their nest, they swarm like bees do, looking for a new site to built. If a suitable site is found, the termites shed their wings as they move in.
Anyone know what kind of flies these are? These flies are everywhere. They walk on walls and carpet and fly around the house. No food is left out; they just won't leave.
In some areas house flies are overwhelming and can be a total pain to get them out of your home. There is one great product that the stores do sell for this time of the year and it is flypaper.
I have tiny black bugs flying around in my kitchen and living room. What are they and more importantly, how do I get rid of them?

Sounds like fruit flies. Do you have fruit in a bowl on the counter? Bananas? Is the weather warm? Clean off surfaces with soapy water and remove over-ripened fruit. I take vinegar and water solution and wipe off my countertops, etc.
We have tiny brown flying bugs that look like gnats in our house. We need help getting rid of them.
By the light of my cell phone, in the dark of my bedroom, I have become aware of tiny flying (flea looking) insects. What might they be ? They are attracted to the light and I've only seen one at a time. I don't notice any bites, but after seeing them I feel they must be living off my dead skin! Help me, please, I'm creeped out!

They are called duloflectasty. And your right they do eat your dead skin and hair. They are harmless and are actually inhaled while you sleep. They attache themselves to your mucus membrane and crawl out through your nostrils, unless you breath through your nose at that point they find another exit. I have heard they will exit through the ear canal. Have no fear.
These bugs come out at night. At first they just walked around the table and gathered in our hanging light. Now they seem to wiggle when they walk and are starting to fly. They are primarily on my family room table, but now seem to be flying elsewhere in the room.
They are tiny, reddish brown in color. Does anyone know what they are? How do I get rid of them? Thanks!
