    Well, at least it looks like fecal. It's on top of a plastic storage bin.

    I did the saliva/smear thing and it smeared, and there was brown on the Qtip. These bins were downstairs, so doesn't seem like a typical place for bb's.

    Are these like solid little nuggets that are not attached to the surface? You can pick them up?

    They are stuck to the plastic, but solid little nuggets. I scraped one off with my fingernail, and it came off whole.

    bbsuck,

    I am not an expert, so I will leave this one to the entomologists and professionals.

    Hi,

    I don't think this is, the colour is wrong as well as the location. However this is one of those that without macro images I would want to see a sample to be certain.

    If pushed for a percentage probability I would say 90% unlikely to be bedbug related.
