    i know it's not a bed bug, i'm trying to figure out what it is. my son found it on his pillow this morning - he does sleep under his window so i'm wondering if that's how it got in....thanks!

    It's a tick. Not sure what kind. I think it's a dog tick.

    we don't have a dog - does that matter? could it have come in through a window?

    See the pics of several species of ticks on this page. Possibly a male dog tick but the picture is too blurry.
