My daughter has just shown me these little bugs that were on her laptop battery. They are tiny. I have cats who we flea regularly but I have no idea what they are or how to get rid of them. Any advice? :S

Hi they are too small to photo with my useless camera. They look like the smallest grain of sugar but they move. There were a few and my daughter wiped them off outside. Her laptop is kept on the floor so I've put it back down to see if there are any more.

Could be dust mites or other dust dwell bugs..
The laptop would be nice for them as it's warm..

It's a sign I don't dust as much as I should... is there anyway to get rid of them? Will they cause any damage?

Every house has them, so not really anything to worry about..

I've never seen them before. I'll hoover again and get the duster out too. Thanks for replying.
