Question by RZ:
What kind of bugs are these? Bed bugs?

Lately my boyfriend and I have noticed some bugs behind our bed sometimes on the wall. But the thing is, is that they DO NOT look like the bed bugs i’ve looked up at all. They look exactly like potato bugs with those little feet, but a tad smaller. They also have this powdery-ness to them like a moth. But they don’t have wings. Any idea what they are? They’re NOT in the bed though. I’ve looked over the mattress and bed frame over 5 times.
they also come out in broad daylight.

Would need to see a picture to know what they are for sure…
carpet beetles are usually found in that area..the adults are shaped like a lady bug, just a different color and a lot smaller, their larvae have a “caterpillar” look to them

the larvae of the black carpet beetle will even look different than the one I took the picture of above.
