Well, I've tried to set up a blog...I have NO idea what I'm doing. Geocities was easier but it's going to be disappearing soon, apparantly.
http://bugsrme.blogspot.com/
is me and my bugs. I can't see anything that I thought that I was posting, except the bug from my ear canal that I caught on the inside bit of an ear-plug.
Will keep on trying to figure this blog thing out, as time booked on the library cmoputer permits...

Looked at your pics. Sorry but it looks like a saw tooth grain beetle which has NONE of the characteristics you mention.Let's get real here..The Canadian nurse told you that you were crazy and you said the Canadian health care system is good. So......well..just a thought.

Well, the nurse was told that by someone who made a wrong diagnosis. I have more pics, but don'thjave a computer at home. Am having to book time on the libraries. Jave amny more pics, looking like dual infestation of body louse and northern fowl mite. Will post when I have time.

OK, have put more pics up on the blog. Sorry it's such a mess.
I don't know about the grain beetle you mentioned, get a grip. I'm not responsible for what falls in to my bowls of water or what ends up in my orfices. Perhaps the pictures are not big enough. The bugs are only about 1/16-1/4mm in size, each. As for something not belonging here, last summer my neighbour showed me a giant silk moth that she'd had i.d'd. It had flown in her balcony, in Hamilton, ON. Not 'sposed to be this far north (I think she said Florida was as far north as they were supposed to go), but there it was in all it's 6" wide glory. So as far as I'm concerned, anything is possible.

Am deleting the blog because the technical side of blogging is far more complicated than I'm able to figure out. It's just a mess with images that are too small to show anything helpful.

My house is filled with these tiny flying insects that seldomly bite. They are barely perceptible to the naked?
eye and only when standing next to a light and there is a dark background. They appear colorless sometime black ro grey. I have treated everything using lysol,RAID, bed bug spray, and natural non toxic solutions. I use lysol everyday.
I cannot get rid of them. I have no idea what they are. I can feel them when they get on me and cannot see them unless they get on something dark. Once they are on something they are too small even with a magnifying glass to see what they are. They fly too fast to catch. I have tried all kinds of sprays and can't get rid of them. They are in my clothes. No matter how much I wash they are still in them. They are always on my person. Like I have fleas but they don't bite as much. Has anyone else had this kind of problem and if so how did you get rid of them? WHAT ARE THEY? I'm going crazy with them.
They are worse at night and late afternoon. Professionally cleaning carpets was no help. Washing all my bedding and clothing is a daily requirement just to be able to be in the same house with them. They do not appear to bother most people. Please help.Posted 1 year ago # -
Dear Rme, I think you should throw away your makeup and lotions and all products associated with this problem. Products and their containers get contaminated. I am so sorry to hear about your bugged out panick attacks and having to rearrange your whole life over these bites. I notice that you bring up bleaching the floors and cleaning alot. It is possible that you have a few ailments going on here. Obviously the lice or mites and possibly a reaction to the constant cleaning chemicals all your life. Since you went so far as to move from your apartment due to the infestation I wonder how you would actually do in a sterile environment free of germs, chemicals and pesticides. Is it possible your apartment was sprayed before you moved in, contact the previous tennant. Maybe you are having an allergic reaction to the pesticides and you keep recontaminating yourself. Were you single? I have a feeling that you are having a bad skin reaction to bleach and chemicals as well as bugs or a similar skin rash and bugs and bleach. The bugs on the plants that killed the plants seem like they would like plants not humans. I think there are some serious problems with that appartment. Good luck.

rme,
For some instances coating yourself with vaseline to suffocate the bugs might be a fix. Keep us posted!
