This is a Zernovka beetle (family Bruchidae). You can read about them here http://www.zin.ru/Animalia/coleoptera/rus/incobr.htm
Look for stocks of peas, beans, etc., from which they are probably derived.

Thank you so much. Sure enough, I'd forgotten that's where I keep my seeds and beans among them.I was also baffled by the fact that there were beetles in the room and not in the kitchen. It's a good thing they weren't woodworms, because the house is made of wood.
Do you think they will die if I put a bag of seeds in the freezer?

If they die, they'll die. But their larvae and pupae are inside the bean seeds. If you are satisfied with "beans with meat" - go ahead smile.gif. If the beans are not for food purposes, but for seeds, sort them out: discard seeds with exit holes (round small "holes"), they do not germinate. And then watch the seeds and periodically sort them out until spring.

Thanks smile.gif
I hope that the temperature of -15 will not affect the similarity of seeds

I don't know confused.giffor sure , I'm not an agronomist.

I recently talked about this topic with our botanists, in their opinion, the promo freeze will affect the germination of seeds negatively. Perhaps infected beans should just be thrown away.

a few hours in the oven at a temperature of 60 degrees - and that's it.

22.02.2008 13:57, Dmitry Vlasov

This "difference" can be either from the degree of scuffing of the specimen or from the amount of dust on the hairs. And the beetle is definitely Attagenus smirnovi, I confirm. Now just start their vyprood....

a few hours???
10 minutes, in my opinion, is enough, it's not a solarium lol.gif

Hello everyone

today I rearranged my daughter's underwear in bed and found some crap under the underwear - I didn't have time to take a picture - my wife pressed the nuclear attack button and ...

The body is round and dark, with 6 light paws at the bottom and two "claws" at the top. Externally similar to a crab, only the size in diameter with legs of about 3-4 mm... And he uses his pincers like a crab...

And my daughter had a couple of red spots on her body today - we can't figure out if there are bites or not...

24.02.2008 22:26, VBoris

The description is similar to a false scorpion. As far as I know, a completely harmless creature.

24.02.2008 22:29, Зажигалка

Mdya, where did it come from in central Russia? :-) Yes, these, what's their name, sugar bowls are worn in the bathroom, and in the toilet the cat is yelling for the second day - like let's eat... And now this shit... In short, until I answer my wife what it was - "I can not return from my Internet": -)

25.02.2008 14:13, Nozer

Many false scorpions have adapted to life in the middle zone.I think in your case it is Chelifer cancroides (book false scorpion).I agree with VBoris completely harmless insect, it has no poison.

This "beast" is absolutely harmless and is not 200% involved in the red spots on your daughter's body. Read and see about false scorpion at these links.

Dear forumchane. Help us determine what kind of animal has taken up residence in the apartment confused.gif. It lives mainly in the kitchen, crawling on walls and furniture. It has underdeveloped wings, 3-4 mm long. Every day it is forced to exterminate 3-5 beetles. The search failed to identify it. All hope is in you mol.gif.

This is the rice weevil Sitophilus oryzae. Look for rice stocks, although it can occasionally damage other grains as well.

25.02.2008 22:48, slanna

Oh, thank you jump.giflike all the cereals reviewed, sinned on vegetables. I'll run fse throw eek.gifaway

If you look well at your body or someone else's, then you can find a lot of interesting spots, there are not enough insects in the world to bite smile.giflike that, And if you look at your body only when unusual creatures appear, then you get such a pun.. False scorpions are cool! They are not scorpions, but only close to them and they do not have a" tail-sting", as well as evil intentions, unlike people who bloodthirstily destroy them smile.gif

We live in the old foundation, communal apartment. Clean apartment (almost everyone in the apartment has small children, so we clean very selflessly)
About two weeks ago, someone started biting. They bite their hands and feet at night. A large (the size of a ruble to a five-ruble coin) reddish bump is formed on the skin. It itches like hell. It takes a long time - a week or a little more.
At the same time, no insects can be caught to know what to fight.
And there's no junk in the house to think about bedbugs. We don't keep sofas: only a bed with orthopedic mattress.
True, there is an animal. Potentially, it could have brought something, because in the last month it rode on the "brides" (can bedbugs come in wool?)
We also allow for the possibility that someone got it from the neighbors: they have an overhaul.

Tell me what to poison so that you don't die yourself! We will hardly be able to open the baseboards: the room is not ours and we have nowhere to live in case of repairs.
I really ask for your help, because I'm already getting nervous: I've been trying to find these things all night.

26.02.2008 6:47, Deigo

My parents have had one for as long as I can remember. I haven't eaten anything of value so far. And not particularly nasty. You can live with it.

26.02.2008 9:40, RippeR

Poison according to the standards of dichlorvos or special insect repellents - a lot of them are sold different.. If dichlorvos, then under furniture, behind furniture, at the joints of walls and floors, in all corners and dark and leaky corners.
You can try to find it carefully in the same places, but if something is small, you may not notice it.
It is advisable to prodihlofosit everything, open the window and do not appear at home for a day until the evening. Then there will be no loyalty to yourself and the probability that the bastards will die..

26.02.2008 9:44, Victor Titov

It looks like fleas. What kind of animal do you have? Cat, dog? Bedbugs in wool can not come, it is excluded. But fleas - easily. Yes, and according to the symptoms you have given, fleas are recognized. But you can't see them, because they are very small and mobile, they jump perfectly. Buy a means to combat them (in the stores "for our smaller friends" they are now full-sprays, shampoos, etc., etc.), a flea collar - on the neck of a friend, and the most thorough fight against dust, including (and above all) in carpets, mats, bedding, etc. - flea larvae they develop there, but they do not need extensive deposits of dust. "In severe cases" - and you probably have one-the apartment will also have to be treated with an anti-flea drug.

I once had the same situation, washed the floor with neostomazan-it helped.

26.02.2008 12:14, Olezhek

We once had a shabla of this kind of badness break into the environment from a newly purchased grain mix for rabbits. So cereals are the most promising homes for them.

Beautiful creatures however smile.gif.

A typical bread grinder (Stegobium paniceum)!!! It feeds on various foods - red pepper, pasta, flour (if wet), various cereals, crackers, I found in cedar cones and horse chestnut fruits... According to the literature, he likes opium! The beetle may live not with you, but with your neighbors, but it also gets to you through the ventilation system. Check the products, if they are infected - throw them away, if it's a pity - freeze them in the freezer (-16 per night is guaranteed to kill it). If the darkness climbs - on the ventilation of a small nylon mesh...

02.03.2008 19:48, Aleksandr Ermakov

Red pepper eats?!!! This is a very serious beast smile.gif

02.03.2008 22:18, omar

I have a large jar of dry red pepper ate! The jar was wooden, with a lid, made of pine, when I ate all the pepper, I started eating the jar from the inside!

the first photo resembles a grinder, the second kozheeda..
If the first, then rather a danger for furniture, if the second, then maybe for clothes, and maybe there is no danger at all..
Poison with anything you want - the stores now have everything..

05.03.2008 10:14, Alexandr Rusinov

The 2nd photo really looks like a leatherhead, but at the expense of the 1st one, I don't think it's a grinder, I think it looks more like a Tribolium, although I can't say for sure from this photo. Recommendations - check the stocks of cereals, pasta, etc. in the kitchen, triboliums live there, from leatherworms - more often revenge and vacuum the floor, their larvae most often develop in dust

05.03.2008 11:42, Bad Den

The first photo is not a tribolium, I see the pronotum raised by a hump. Still something edgerlike?

05.03.2008 11:55, Victor Titov

I think it's Lasioderma serricorne F., the tobacco beetle. In the second photo-exactly it. "Mows" under the skin-eater, because the head-paws turned up, in this state it looks short and somewhat rounded. You need to look for stocks of plant-based products (including dried medicinal plants - he even likes mint, for example). It can develop in dried mushrooms, breadcrumbs, cereals, etc.

It seems to me that the beetle in the first photo is too elongated for a tabachnik, but with this quality of photo, I won't give my head off. tongue.gif

05.03.2008 13:46, Victor Titov

I agree, it looks a bit long. But perhaps this is the angle of the image.

05.03.2008 14:41, Dmitry Vlasov

The first one can be a hoodman!

05.03.2008 14:43, Dmitry Vlasov

Mustard could also be eaten by tobacco beetles Lasioderma serricorne - "cousins" of the bread grinder.
