Hi there! I live in Northern New Jersey right outside New York City. A couple weeks ago I started seeing these bugs on my kitchen counter and in my sink. They move slowly and are about the size of a tick with 6 legs and what appears to be little pinchers / antennae (??)

I have NO idea where they are coming from. I have not brought anything unusual into my apartment, I never leave food out and clean my sink and counter daily. ANY help would be so so appreciated, I need to get rid of these things!
