What the heck is this?
Any biologist or entomologist (or anyone who knows) in here who knows what the heck this is? Sometimes, I find these little insect creatures on the wall and even on my bed.
And no, we're not dirty or messy at all. But once in a while, that creature would appear. It's not a lady bug, although looks similar in the picture, but much much smaller - about the same size as 1/3 or 1/4 of a rice grain. I hope someone here has also seen it in their home.
Edit: 1/2 of a rice grain.
Thank you!
I didn't have my DSLR, so I snapped this with a point-n-shoot (I should've shot from the front to show its face, but it was really hard to focus):

I can't identify it, but this site: http://www.whatsthatbug.com/ has come in handy a few times for me. It can be a little hard to search, but you can also submit your photo to them.

Bedbugs look like ticks, mine looks like a tiny lady bug. Moreover, even the their legs are completely different. That's why I was hoping to get an insect expert.
We have a Tempurpedic and that thing is supposed to be resistant to bugs and such. Moreover, we wash sheets and pillows once a week. I inspected my bed fully and carefully and didn't see any bug or sign of them. The creature I found was certainly not a bedbug.








OP has bedbugs!! nasty
KILL THEM!!!
