Guest guest Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 OK - here's a link to the photo - https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/1nWO3cTjnKvOSYkKw7dqPmLeX_TY1_dExAphT2rQKe\ E?feat=directlink > > Hi guys. I missed the boards the last several days. We were out of town and for 7 blissful nights I had no bites - no nothing. Now we are back home and it's all started up again . A while back I posted regarding a strange bug i captured crawling across my cheek. At that time I did not have the equipment to post a photo. Bought myself a video scope for valentines (pathetic but oh well) and have run across the same bug again. I cannot make an id - looks sort of like a springtail (but no little whip thing) - perhaps a bedbug but it's longer and it's legs are in different spots. We did have bird mites - these guys are just are newest pest to take up residence. Maybe one of you can hazard a guess - I don't know how to attach the photo to my post so I will upload it into the Photos section under the name Buggie. > > Hope everyone is hanging in there! > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Looks like a springtail to me. Are you sure the tail is not under since it is dead? I would treat home for mold if it were me, and myself. > > > > Hi guys. I missed the boards the last several days. We were out of town and for 7 blissful nights I had no bites - no nothing.

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 If it is microscoptic tiny, that looks like something my sister and I looked at. It was in the floating fibers. The University of Georgia said it was a Rove Beetle. I'm not saying it is, just telling what I know. Love and light, >> Hi guys. I missed the boards the last several days.

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Hi there. I did have my last sample of this bug sent to our extension office. They said it was a green lacewig nymph....I don't think it looks anything like a green lacewig from the photos I can find on line. I am going to send it to another bug id site and see what I can get. I haven't seen wings on the four samples I've found but I suppose if it is a nymph then I wouldn't. Ever feel like you just need to put the scope away and start living? I am going to try to take a break from looking at the samples of debris and specs and bugs I collect. Just makes me more upset. Hope you are well! > > > > Hi guys.
