   Hello

   Can someone please tell me what the little clear bug might be on this sticky pad. It is really small and I snapped a photo of it through a magnifier. Part of me doesn't think it's a bed bug, I think I know what it might be, but would like to see what you all think.

   We found one bed bug in my apartment 6 months ago today, and we had the sniffing dogs in and they said we were clear. Over the past few weeks sticky pads have caught a few of these and I'm freaking out.

   Please help ASAP!

   Please zoom in and there is a clear looking bug.

   Thanks so much for your time!

   Even when zoomed it, it is indiscernible. I thought it was a booger.

   Definitely does not look like a bed bug. Even when a bedbug is empty, it's still abit more rounder.

   Thats what I thought from pics I saw online! I'm getting pretty good I guess at researching bugs LOL!

   Thank you so much for your replies, I feel so much better. The past 6 months I have been nothing but worried, and everytime I try and calm down I see something like that and freak out again.

   I love this site, atleast there is somewhere to turn for questions and help.
