These have started appearing in my kitchen the last 6 months. No matter how clean I keep it they re-appear. Sometimes on the wall next to my boiler, sometimes in the cupboards. Just found one upstairs in my house today so hope they aren't invading!





Any ideas? Seem to be some form of mite. Definitely not a fly or any. Small head and bigger abdomen, no bigger than 1mm in size.

I'm struggling to see on my tiny screen with those pictures but they just look like small ants to me.

There are many varieties, very variable in over all size, some have relatively big heads, some have relatively big abdomens, and all points in between.

Looks like my original images expired but still having this bug issue, better photographs above. This one was more 2mm in size. They range from 0.05 - 0.2mm, quite fast, seem to appear randomly in my en suite, bedroom and now more so around sink in my downstairs and upstairs bathrooms
