Tiny Light Brown Tick Looking Insects in Drawers
I just found these extremely small light brown bugs in my daughter's closet and haven't the faintest idea what they are. I want to say that I've seen them in the bathroom near some of the mildew and grime, but why would they also be where it's dry and very clean? Her clothing is washed regularly and never put back once worn. To my best guess, they are probably .5 mm. They almost look as if they are specks of dust, but they move. What are they and how do I get rid of them using something that is both safe for the baby and something around the house like Windex or Anti-bacterial spray? :eek:

I don't know that it would be a tick. The ticks that I have seen are dark brown. Wood ticks are usually 3-4 millimeters and a deer tick is the size of a poppy seed. I'm not sure what they are because I can't see them but check this site:

Thanks so much for the web-site. I looked at the bugs and got quite creeped out! I'm glad that I think what we have is less dangerous and scary. THis is what some more research has shown... I think we have...
Psocids (booklice) are small, common but harmless household pests, found in dark, warm, humid places such as the folds of packaging in food cupboards, where they feed on microscopic moulds and mildews that flourish in such locations. They do not carry germs or disease. The life cycle of psocids (booklice) is one that results in prolific numbers of the pest, but prevention is relatively simple and should avoid having to take any costly and time consuming control measures.

Those were pretty creepy bugs, huh? I didn't think that you had anything too dangerous to deal with.
