I was cleaning the bunk beds in my kids room and removed the mattress to get a good clean. There I found quite a few items behind the bed, including toys and a few socks that fell behind the bed. When I checked the socks, I found these strange bugs, can someone held identify them? Coincidently, my daughter had two insect bites last night, they look kind of like mosquito bites but now of course I'm worried that these bugs bit her (and that they will spread).
Thanks in advance!
These are larvae and shed larval 'skins' of beetles in the family Dermestidae (carpet/hide/skin/larder beetles, etc.). They would not be responsible for any bites.
Thanks so much, very relieved to know what it is!
