They are brown and can fly, for at least a short time. They also curl up into a ball when touched.
I have also found their larva all over the apartment.
What are they, where do they usually come from, and how do I get rid of them?
I had some dried flowers that I just threw out because I thought that it may have been their source. I also just purchased a royal palm plant.
Suggestions?
Image too small and fuzzy for a good i.d. - on the chance that it could be a pantry pest like a drugstore or cigarette beetle, check dry stored products (flour, pasta, mixes, spices, pet food, etc.) for signs of infestation.
Here is another picture to help identify this bug.
Looks like a cigarette beetle. See http://ohioline.osu.edu/hyg-fact/2000/2083.html for control recommendations.
