    Weird bugs in couch
    We got new couches and were in the process of throwing out our old ones when these little beetle bugs were crawling out. I lookes at the bed bug pictures and it does not look like that. They look like little baby pill bugs. They are a light color cream. I would love to know what they are!

    Ehhh?? When people call my office with these kind of vague descriptions, I often tease them to hold the bug closer to the phone. Nevertheless I will venture to guess... Are they hairy? Did the bugs look like this? These are the larvae of carpet beetles, the type of bug I might expect to come out of an old couch. But I would not expect them to come out of a new couch. Post a picture of your bug, if you can.
