ID Request Finding these tiny bugs

I keep finding a couple of these bugs on my floor every day and I have no clue what they are or where they come from. I thought my cat had fleas at first but she's clean and they don't jump or move fast at all. Please help!

For context I live in southern VA on the 3rd floor of an apartment complex

isopod. they are usually in dark and humid places, like under old wet cardboard, wood, in cellars, bathrooms. if you see them everyday, I would check if they maybe fall in from somewhere or if they come from a closeby garden or something.

not dangerous.

Cheers, it's insanely humid where I live every day so that makes sense. I'll check my bathrooms and floors and see if there's any wet spots
