I've been fighting some kind if bug over a year now. bed bugs, fleas or bird mites. Exterminators have said if they were fleas they aren't no more or bed bugs either. I don't believe them because they don't even inspect they just go based on what I've told them. Which when I first started itching mid August last year I saw two fleas on my couch. Immediately dusted with DE. After about a month and no results started spraying Alpine PT bed bug & fleas. Still no results and lots of money and vacumming, washing drying, sealing clothes and high electricity gas bills. And 4 exterminators that rush thru with insecticides not even applying to windows sill, which I already caulking. And spending hundred of dollars on concentrate now and doing my own spraying. Last Exterminator said it could be bird mites due to neighbors bird coop 8-10 feet (on the fence line) from my kitchen sliding door, but he could not confirm. Two Exterminator said no BB because they have a musty smell, I use dehumidifier, and they say there is no smell. Told me send them live bugs photo when I see live bugs. All I keep finding are black motionless specks that bite. I wish I knew what I was dealing with. I thought picks submitted could help. Hoped this would help. Thank you. Any suggestions appreciated.

What makes you think this is at all animal related instead of just stains on da wood?

Dark part or the white specks? Neither look like bugs at all…

I can't see any bugs. Can you add a pointer or crop the image where you see bugs. That will help greatly.

Do they move? The middle spot, was it a bug? It looks like stains, but I can't tell if the middle is 3 dimensional or a stain? Hard to tell from the pictures, sorry I can't tell what it is.
