I have very tiny (maybe a mm big), round moth like bugs crawling on my walls and carpet. I just saw one fly the other day. They are black and white stripped with six legs and antennas. When squished they have a powdery dust on their wings. Any idea what they are? They don't bite; they're just a nuisance.

I'm not sure what kind of bugs those are but I found the apple cider vinegar trick worked when we had a gnat infestation. Maybe that would work for you. Place a cup of apple cider vinegar near where the bugs are (a few drops of soap in the vinegar helps). Dump out the collections of dead bugs daily. I was shocked at how many we collected. We also moved the bananas into the refrigerator until the infestation stopped.
Do you just pour that stuff in a cup, then sit it next to where your sleeping and the bugs go inside the cup overnight?
I have tiny white flying bugs in my house. You can't see them they sit on my feet and hands while trying to sleep when I move they fly very tiny cant catch what I do not see in carpet also. Help
I am guessing they are moth flies, google them and see a pic. We had them last year for the first time ever.
Have you tried the bleach and then plugging or covering the drains so they can't come out?
Same happened to me.
I recommend using you know the laundry detergent tide the clear one not the blue.
Put it in a spray bottle with vinegar, salt and sugar.
Sure-fire solution for getting rid of many flying insects. My father used this trick when I was young, and I have used it several times with great success.
You'll need:
- large dinner plate
- desk lamp - preferably of the goose-neck variety
- water
- dish soap
Before going to bed at night, set the plate on a table or kitchen counter, preferably where the bugs have been seen. Add just enough water to cover the bottom of the plate. Now put one drop of dish soap in the water and stir so it's mixed together. This breaks the surface tension, and insects that land on it will drown. Now position the lamp so it's very close to and shining down on the water. Half an inch is about right. This draws the insects to the soapy water, and when they land on it, they drown. In the morning, you may see that the water is covered with dead insects.
