I totally know what everyone is talking about but I do not think anyone as given a correct response to what they are. I have seen them in every home I have lived in. Mostly on the screens. I have them in my kitchen. The are tiny black beetle like insects that actually fly if they need to but most of the time they appear dead. My friend has them on her screen as well. I am not sure what to do about them but I am over it. Since I dont kill insects I throw mine out the window but I am over that too. Today I had at least ten in the dust pan and I sweep my kitchen floor at least 2x a day if not more. I do hope someone can help me get rid of them.
