insects in damp room
Hello, my room has become somewhat infected and I would like to know what kinds of insects I might have to know how to proceed further.
My room is very damp with some mold in corners / under carpet near edges, something I am working to fix right now.
Here is bugs that I found:
I occiasionally see silverfish like so:
Under the carpet at the edges I found these larvae:
Based on my research it seems it might be a carpet beetle or booklice? Though I haven't really notice any damage to the carpet near to the larvae, or anywhere else, or damage to my clothes. There is some mold too there.
Next, I managed to find a few of these crawling at night near the wall with larvae. It was super small, around 1-2mm.
Bed Bugs
A few days ago before going to bed, I found a bug on my bed that looked like a bed bug, it was around 0.5cm large, and a more round shape than the bug on previous picture. Could this be an adult bug from the previous picture, or a bed bug?
Moreover, I found a lot of spots with traces left after insects, like what you see in the picture with silverfish, and I was wondering if there is a chance of me having bedbugs too or one of my already present insects is responsible for it.
This one is on my bedsheet:
I didn't find any blood stains or other indicators on my bed, nor have any bites.
And this one is on a wall close the the ceiling, on the opposite side from my bed, close to where the silverfish in the picture are.
Please can you also recommend a good solution to all of these bugs based on what they are?
I am already getting a dehumidifier, so that should help with the dampness, but should I also spray them with something?
Thanks greatly for all your help
