I swear, I have more freaking wildlife...
After the spider ID, I was informed that my bedroom used to have spiders allll over it, like making nests in the corners. Way back when, but the image was enough to give me nightmares for the night. Ugh.
So here is another bug. I can't tell. For size, the tape the bug is stuck to is 1/2 inch Scotch double side tape. It is REALLY not making me feel good.

I don't know which of the last two shows the underside best, unfortunately neither shows it well.

Not sure what it is, looks like a beetle of some sort, some other people have been posting pics like that as well recently.
Definitely NOT a bed bug though

Oh, good. Phew! You guys make me feel a lot better. I had a feeling it was a beetle (or a tick) but it's always best to get final approval.
Luckily I didn't kill the sweet beetle, I found it dead on my floor.
