Tiny red nymph/mite? Bites.
Myrtle Creek , Oregon County
July 6, 2018
This tiny, pinhead size or smaller bug I've seen twice now. In the photo it is on its back. It is some kind of mite or nymph? Easily smashed, with bright red stain.

Moved from Mites and Ticks.

yes, it's a mite
Image is too blurry to know what taxon, though the most likely guess is among the Parasitengona,.
