I tried to magnify the photo and it blurs for me...it looks a lot like a flour beetle when at the regular size photo. Match yours to this picture so you can verify:

One I usually don't worry about, but more than one, you will want to check all of your flour, cereal etc. You could have had some hitchhike from the store into your house.

I take them outside....friends suck them up with their vacuum. If you do have them in your products, you need to trash them all, clean out where they were stored really well and think about keeping these type of products in a different place until you are sure there are no eggs or infestations.

This site gives good info:

Good luck!

Do you have pets? Looks like a grain beetle. They like pet food.
