PLEASE HELP!!!! I have a tiny white bug infestation...
I have a tiny white bug infestation in my bedroom (in a moist and dusty basement in Ontario Canada). They are extreamly small, smaller than a grain of salt and are hard to see unless they are on something dark in colour. They dont appear to have wings and dont seem to fly ( but I could be wrong, they just look like tiny specs, I cant even make out legs when looking at them), they just crawl around on everything. They are in my bed, on my clothes, in my dressers, pretty much on EVERYTHING! I have sprayed my bedroom with a standard indoor/outdoor bug killer twice within the past two weeks but it didnt seem to do anything to them. I have done several searches on the internet to try and ID these nasty little buggers but have not come up with anything conclusive. At first I thought they could be dust mites, but I believe dust mites are too small for the naked eye to see am i right? My Aunt suggested that they are aphids but I dont have any plants down here. I dont think taking a picture will help, all i have to take pictures with is my cell phone and it doesnt take very good quality pictures, So I found a picture of something on the internet that seems to be atleast similar...
