Everyday we are dragging in from outside a beetle. These beetles are Cream color with dots probably about the size of a large coffee bean. I didn't mind them at first, but EVERYDAY??? I just plucked one out of my sisters hair yesterday. Does this beetle sound familiar to anyone???

Thanks!!!

We have beetle problems due to the rain. I didnt' mind at first either but, called it quits when I found one in my bed. We have the exterminator come out every 2-3 months just for the beetles in the summer. Says they are harmless, but gross!

...I guess it's better than roaches though =-)
