At first I thought they were bedbugs but then one spread its wings & started flying so that ruled that option out. I found each on two separate occasions. I need to know how they got in my covers and what I need to do to get rid of them. I can’t sleep comfortable thinking there might be more somewhere in my mattress.. can anyone help??
Cockroaches don’t fly do they? This bug is as small as a fruit fly. I haven’t woken up with any type of bite that I’ve noticed…
i live in Los Angeles
***the bug might look large in pictures but it’s only around 2.5 millimeters (0.1 inches) like an ant or fruit fly… around that size***
I was looking at the website from the link below…. it looks a lot like a raspberry fruitworm…. I wonder if that’s what it is!
I really appreciate all your help =)

they are probably water bugs but be careful …bugs tend to look for dark spaces including ears so when you are asllep be careful juzt keep ur room clean and youll be alright
Those are east-indian sleepeaters
I would move. Now.
yea those bugs look definitely nasty! I suggest you wash your sheets immediately and have your whole room vacuumed. They could be feeding on some food you might have in your room or something that dropped on the floor. Then I would go to your local home depot and take the pictures and ask them they might be able to suggest you some bug spray to get rid of those creepy crawlers, good luck!
