    What is this insect?

    Bugs

    How do I get rid of them? It's really annoying. They are not mites or any type of parasitic bug. I reckognize them from outside and I've lived around them my whole life and they never harmed anyone. So what my question is, how do I get them out? They got in because I had a bag of cypress...

    Tort Sleeping In The Open?
