In my sleep, I brushed it away - and felt something decently sized was on my arm. I bolted out of bed, turned on the lights, threw back the sheets - and found something I don't understand.</p> <p>In my bed, there are about 10 small objects that look like bug parts. Each is a few millimeters long, starting with a thicker segment that is striped beige-and-white and then thins out to a longer beige, 'antenna-thickness' segment, and the whole thing is folded into a triangle (with the 'antenna'-looking part being longer than the other sides of the triangle). I don't have a camera that can take a photo of them. The 'antenna' part seems soft and pliable and the whole thing looks to me like it's made of chitin.</p> <p>Does anyone have ANY idea what these could be?? My friends upstairs had a treatment for bedbugs a few months ago (I never had any sign of them down in the basement where I live, and have had no sign since) but this appears unrelated to me. Still, I felt something on my arm, and these things in my bed certainly came from SOMETHING.</p> <p>I'd appreciate any input you have! </p>
