Very tiny bugs on my desk?

Question

Hi! I live in the desert of St. George Utah and I have these VERY small bugs on my desk. There aren't very many, they appear only sometimes, but they are concerning to me. I normally eat at this desk and do homework on it, I also have my desktop computer on it. The bugs seem harmless, just very annoying. I'm worried it could be a bigger problem. Thank you! P.S. They also leave a brown fluid behind when squished.

Answer 1

I'll bet you have a problem with scorpions too. (I do at my house in St George)



I bought some of those traps with a VERY sticky surface inside, and placed them on both sides of all doors to the outdoors and garage. They trap a lot of bugs AND scorpions.



Also, if you have any indoor plants, that may be where they're coming from.

Answer 2

Capture a few of the bugs and take them to your county extension agent's office. They will help you identify the bugs.

Answer 3

Sounds like bedbugs.

Answer 4
