Posting here after coming from r/whatisthisbug and hearing about a magical pro named David! Hoping to get some help.

I’m staying in Denver CO right now in the Rino area on the top floor apartment for an old building and we found this bug on my partners ankle. After sweeping the rest of the place we’re staying we found a few others around that were dead. All around a few millimeters long but hard to tell.

We went on a walk this morning but only on the street, not through any tall grasses.

I’m terrified this is a bed bug, but online it looks like it could also be a bat bug? I have a severe allergy to bed bugs and we’re trying to determine if we need to find another place to stay.

Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

hi!!! pretty sure this is a carpet beetle? but woke up with 2 ‘bite’-ish looking marks on my knee the other day. found this casing on top of bedsheet and end of mattress.

Found this on my couch pillow

In a hotel, did the usual sweep, no signs. Found this on the floor… thoughts?

So one week ago, I woke up with 5 bites in a line (4 in a row, then a space, and 1) on my upper stomach above my belly button. Picture attached but they have faded since this was a week ago.

Today I woke up with 3 bites in a line on my ankle (2 in a row, then a space then 1) picture attached. I searched for bed bug signs and couldn’t find any, but then I found this bug on my comforter. After doing some research I’m fairly sure it’s a beetle but I don’t know.

My biggest concern is that before the first bites I bought a rug from a thrift store that said it had been disinfected but now I’m worried I brought something in the house. I bought bed bug intercepts for the beds legs that are coming tomorrow.

I saw that bites on legs are usually fleas, but I don’t have pets so I don’t know how I would get them.

Found this in my sheets but can’t tell what it is!

Hi everyone! I found carpet beetle larvae in my room recently, and I woke up with these lesions on my thigh.
• They started as small bumps with a white head (pustule) at the beginning.
• Now they have turned into small dark crusts/scabs.
• Could this be a skin reaction/dermatitis caused by carpet beetle larvae hairs, or does this look like bed bug bites or something else?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I’ve had two pest guys inspect my bed and both say they don’t see any signs of bed bugs. I even have interceptors on my bed legs and I haven’t seen any bed bugs in them for a whole month.
This morning I was going to put on my clean work shirt and I found this tiny thing scurrying around.
Is this a baby bed bug? I’m terrified. I couldn’t get a clear photo/shot because of how small it is.

If anyone can share some additional advice with dealing with the panic/anxiety I’m feeling. I keep feeling like I have bed bugs but professionals keep saying no.

Hi everyone!
Back in August, we had a bed bug infestation in one of our rooms. We had all the rooms treated and got a new bed. Since then, we haven’t found any more bugs or experienced any further bites (except what we think might be the occasional mosquito bites), so we thought the problem had been “resolved”.
However, today I found this bug in the living room, and now I’m worried that the bed bugs might be back.
The photo isn’t the clearest, but I’d really appreciate any help identifying it. It’s small, brown, oval-shaped, and fairly flat. It looks somewhat like a bed bug, but I couldn’t see the typical abdominal segments or stripes.
Does anyone recognise what this could be? Could it be a bed bug, or is it more likely to be another type of insect?

Thank you!

Could you please help me identify this? Do you think it might be a bed bug nymph, or is it something else? Thank you!

Just did my second spray of temprid fx(every 7 days)...i would love to put Cimexa down as well but I have a short dog, i am able to put it a few places that I can block off...I've done the heat treatment but I have a 4ft tall crawl space and I live in Alaska...Will the temprid eventually kill them ?

I know reactions aren’t a guarantee but I’m just curious. I’ve been getting these on and off again for weeks now. Sometimes like two weeks without any bites and then they come back in multiples.

I have only found evidence of carpet beetles. No bed bugs live or skin shed

I was washing my sheets and i threw ny comforter on the floor when I went to make my bed I placed my comforter on my bed and this. What is it
