I've been finding these all over the house and I just wondered what they were as I haven't seen them before. I like in the UK and we've had a LOT of ring, and now a heat wave, I thought it may be down to the weather.
Sorry for the poor quality picture it was on my phone.

Also if it helps.
They don't mind where they are, but they seem to like height. I found one crawling up my bedroom curtain and got to the top. The one in the picture was in the bathroom I had to tap it down from the top of the wall to get the picture. So they don't mind, bathroom or bedroom.
I can sometimes literally see 3 in the same area sometimes. It's a clean household we've never had these problems before, although we recently got an infestation of ants outside the house and due to a poor fitting of a wet room they got in to the wet room so the ant poison was put down.
It's an earwig, basically a harmless nuisance pest.
