I don't sleep all night! they're everywhere!!!! I found a fat one and crushed it...blood!!!! Who is it?!!

6 legs means exactly an insect, and to determine the photo does not hurt.

05.08.2007 5:32, bobble

I've just read the descriptions - it looks like a bird tick...I'll post a photo as soon as I catch the critters

15.08.2007 14:09, fly-km

ticks, if I'm not in the yellow house, are arachnids and should in theory have 8 legs....

22.08.2007 20:38, Aleksandr Ermakov

Bed beetles.

This is only if they have grown to the imaginal stage. The larvae may have as many as six.

Approximately the same situation with crickets (?). I attach a photo. They? :-)

No, it's not bedbugs! I immediately came up with a case - about 15 years in the country, I opened a nest of starlings - it was on top, and I ran my hand to rake out the grass and all sorts of garbage. Suddenly he began to itch and was horrified to see that he was covered with small, rather fast-moving arthropods. There were hundreds of them!!! I began to shake myself off and wash. But they definitely bit. At the time, I didn't even have a good idea about insect orders, so I can't guess what they were. Maybe some hay eaters. I remember clearly that light and slightly sclerotized creatures.

These were bird fleas, and there are often a lot of them in their nests.

Probably a scaly fish after all. I have the same symptoms. They run fast, you don't notice their paws, they are silvery and mobile, like mercury.

they are not sitting....they sit

10.09.2007 1:05, aleksei2007

Hi, everybody,

I had some experience with sanepid. All "operational" information is deleted for obvious reasons!

When I eat. when I came to this office, the lovely aunts (I'm not kidding, they were really kind and friendly) started to sit me down to drink tea, court me, etc., etc. It turned out that they wanted (to put it bluntly, they were too shy!) me to show them the appropriate pathogen in the microscope, i.e. what it looks like. We are talking about a very serious CAUSATIVE AGENT of the DISEASE, and the duties of these aunts, among other things, were to "monitor" it... Like that.

Help!!!!!!!!!!!I found IT in the crevices of the sofa on which I sleep where dust accumulated, it started with the fact that traces of mosquito bites appeared on the body and itched!!! I started looking for the reason. When I saw these creatures I was shocked! They are small (maybe only for now) from 3 to 5 mm. there are many small legs at the bottom, so they do not move slowly, if they are poked, they curl.

Why, it's a bristletail! It doesn't bite. And they have only six real legs, the rest are fake smile.gif

Well, thank you, "reassured". Apparently, this is a new phenomenon typical for new buildings. I am sure that this is not due to poor ventilation and dampness, because in my apartment (also a new building, of course) this byaka appeared earlier than the repair workers appeared there, i.e. when the apartment was just concrete slabs, where there were no communications and therefore not a drop of water. As for the draft in ventilation, in our high-rise tower, it is still such that when the window is open, I do not need to turn on the built-in fan, it is already spinning at full speed. Apparently, these insects feel great somewhere in concrete slabs and love fresh tile grout, wallpaper glue, etc. natural products page materials. And it is not at all clear what to do with them, because it looks like these are so-called collective insects, i.e. somewhere it is possible in the vent. the mine is breeding a queen, and on the surface we meet only with poor hard workers, which no matter how much you destroy, new ones will still come running. In general, if someone manages to get rid of these "cute beetles", please share your experience. And people who are engaged in disinfection of apartments, please pay attention to the new problem.

Isn't it a leatherworm larva? And in the dust they meet, and the bristle-tails like wet places, in theory.

12.09.2007 16:26, Guest

More precisely, Sugar flake (Lepisma saccharinum).

12.09.2007 16:50, amara

I also believe that this is a leatherworm larva Attagenus

13.09.2007 13:51, Tigran Oganesov

Definitely kozheed.

13.09.2007 14:24, Guest

Precisely!! I looked at more photos of kozheed's lechinok on the Internet, and they are there. Could they have bitten? From where then bites similar to mosquitoes or midges and itched?

13.09.2007 16:15, Tigran Oganesov

No, they don't bite, but they can cause allergic reactions, and there may also be irritation from the hairs.

13.09.2007 16:22, Guest

Bedbugs also live in sofas smile.gif

14.09.2007 9:32, oyla

Hair irritation? From what hairs?
I cleaned the entire couch inch by inch! ) vacuumed all the cracks, bought antimolipoy. I didn't see any bedbugs... thank God, and these are enough! )) By the way after I cleaned everything nothing else itches

14.09.2007 9:42, amara

did you happen to find any small dark beetles on the windowsills?

14.09.2007 10:22, oyla

No, I didn't find it.
Only the larvae of this leatherworm in the cracks of the sofa in the dust, so I picked them all out, then I saw one bug on the floor under the sofa, I didn't see anyone else.
And who do you mean on the windowsills?

14.09.2007 10:32, amara

I was referring to the leatherworm (Attagenus) whose larva you found, but I must have made a mistake
, and the bug you saw was about what size and color?

14.09.2007 10:42, oyla

maaalenky, black, no more than 3 mm

14.09.2007 10:49, amara

maybe Attagenus, but it doesn't matter, what matters is that you cleaned them all out

I hope that everyone! )) and then it was scary to climb on the sofa!

14.09.2007 10:59, amara

You have nothing to fear at all, but furs and wool can be

17.09.2007 12:44, oyla

and I really found 2 beetles on the windowsill yesterday! One between the rames

17.09.2007 14:41, guest: Олеся

I live in Kiev on the first floor. I'm constantly pestered by insects that I've never seen before in my life. I crushed one yesterday, but it was too big (the size of a woman's fist, if the paws were spread out, if it would have shrunk , it would have pulled on a ripe walnut).

The photo is not very good quality, but something can be seen, some of the paws when crushed (the shell is quite hard, I had to knock 10 times) flew in different directions.

An obscure two-horned thing stuck out from behind, which later turned out to be a multi-horned thing.

I understand that the description is unclear and incorrect, but I would still be very grateful for help in determining who it is, otherwise I'm afraid to go home now...

Am I right that it's a cricket ?

17.09.2007 16:31, omar

No! This is a grasshopper.

17.09.2007 16:32, omar

Orangery, I guess.

17.09.2007 17:55, guest: Олеся

thank you so much. Still it smile.gifis
