I have tiny bugs in my house. They are very tiny and thin. They are brown and when you smoosh them it leaves a brown streak. They don't look like bed bugs.

I have these bugs in my house. I've found them in my room, my kids room, and in the living room, and I don't know what they are.So if you could help me that would be fantastic. These bugs are pretty small, and they hairs all over their body. They are stripy black gray lines on it body. They look like maggots but they have 6 legs I think at the front of the body.

Possibly just spring tails or psocids. Really hard to say without a picture. Spring tails are usually around moist areas which can be from wet area under a sink to moisture getting into a bathroom wall from bad caulking to a flower bed outside next to the house that is heavily watered. Psocids are also needing humid areas and can be found many places in a home, a common name for them is Book Lice.

Boy, that's hard to nail down. I'd say earwigs but you say they are 'tiny'. That leads me to believe they are maybe small beetles or weevils. Literally they could be hundreds of things. Can you give any other info? Like are they scattered about or do they walk in trails? Look at this link and see if my beetle theory ( guess ) is correct. I seem to remember squishing some grain beetles and them leaving a mark. http://pestcemetery.com/?p=74
I may be off but would like to help. So if not on that link,post more info & I'll put my gray matter to work.
