Help! Strange insects eat me!

Community and ForumHow to get rid of insectsHelp! Strange insects eat me!

Незнаюшечка, 01.07.2018 21:07

On the balcony began to appear small as motes, at first I did not understand what it was, I thought some kind of sorr. Then it started to bite! The bites are strong, itching right up to the blood ( maybe this is my reaction, my husband is bitten but not so much). We have a hole between the balcony doors and the balcony itself there are some bags filled with something that is not clear with what on which stone slabs lie, I filled this hole with bleach and sprayed all sorts of sprays, but all in vain. Yesterday I realized that they fall from above, the ceiling on the balcony is wooden, but the neighbors have exactly the same way the floor is made and these insects and they have!!!
Insects are very small, if you do not look closely, you will not see them maybe one and a half millimeters, or maybe less in length, they climb out mainly during the day, they have already moved into the apartment: they bite exactly warm places: the neck, armpits, between the legs - in a word, where it is warm. If you sleep on your back, then the back, legs to the hips do not bite, as fleas do. If you rub these insects with your finger, they look like earth. If things hang on the balcony, they mostly hide in the seam, where it is warmer!!! Tell us who it is, how to deal with it, and where they breed from. Sorry for the photo, but they are so small that they are not easy to take a picture!!

Possibly gamas mites. Do you have any pigeons living nearby?
I just had such a situation in the Moscow region - I had to pickle the whole apartment.

I don't think there are any pigeons. But the bites are terrible. Today I looked like they have wings, but they don't fly

How's that?

Smelly? If so, then most likely, here they are - http://bethylidae.ru/

Thrips are there. Many thrips bite and drink people's blood in the heat. Just like the cicadas. But the problem is either on the street or on indoor plants.
