This is not an insect.

There are probably fungus gnats. Do you have house plants?

There is no way anyone can claim these to be insect parts based on these pictures.

I am interested in hearing that you think the diptera looking insects are fungus gnats.
No house plants but possibly mold.
The things you say are not insects -- they are stinging me -- and not like I am stepping on splinters-- the ones in my finger emerged from my finger after feeling a sting and rubbing alcohol over the sting area, the ones in my sock occurred when I was reading in bed and suddenly had a sharp sting. Looking at my sock I saw tiny black dot and slightly larger one-- this is what I saw through the microscope.
Do molds attack people?

Good job Locrian--I think you have hit on the fungus gnats id. I have asked many and no one has gotten it.
Now, if there is an ecosystem built up around mold that may have very well invaded my house and body, what else could be attacking me to eat the mold? There seems to be some kind of community between these moths, leaf hoppers and the fungus gnats. But, none of these sting, right? Also something has now infested my cat-- not fleas. So the million dollar question is: what is smaller than a moth, leaf hopper and fungus gnat that may be carried by them and that may be able to penetrate the skin delivering a sting like a small projectile?

Locrian. Stay tuned. I found a research paper that answers most of my questions and puts a large section of the puzzle together. I will copy the link to it in the morning. Thanks for identifying one of the key pieces--the first insect of interest.

Where do you live Deep? Could the cat have mange or mites? If you have mould, could this be a reaction from the mould? Cats first explained that "invisible bugs" can be environmental i.e. mould...

Biology of various species of diptera, arthropoda, etc. can be identified by rthe inrterior structure usually found in a macrophage, cytoplasm and glycoprotien encasement. Tsetse, Chagas via Rhodius Proxilus, and several Diptera species at a phase of embryogenesis will present a "key" type shape unique to the species. Not a fool proof system ibn the event of polygenesis or other indeced mutations due to medicine and health dieseases such as HIV, diabetes or in the case of coinfection with ticks or fleas (Babesia/Rickettsia) The structure you see here is possible a polygenesis larva.

Tiny almost invisible flying bug biting me non-stop
[ 30 Answers ]
I bought a house last June and ever since I've been attacked by a tiny flying bug that I can only see in water and then it just looks like dust or dandruff. At first I thought they were the "no see ums" because they feel just like them. The bite is awful and painful but I don't have any bumps...
