Size: 1mm or less
I've been finding these little bugs crawling around in my ground suite. I've first noticed them on my glue trap in my bedroom (suite is all laminate/tile flooring) and saw 2 on my washroom floor tiles since yesterday.
They are very small and really hard to spot. They are a light brown color and about only 1mm in length or smaller. The 2 photos is the same bug, just taken at different angles on a piece of toilet paper. The insects legs may be a bit unformed because I picked it up with a tissue and may have squished it. Ive been trying to find photos to identify this bug, but no luck so far. I have a baby and was concerned if she was playing on the floor.
Thank you all for your input! I truly appreciate it!

This is probably
Psyllipsocus ramburii.
