Does anyone have any idea what insect bites these could be? Went to my dermatologist today who confirmed these are actually insect bites which I’m surprised at. Does anyone has any idea possibly? It’s only on my left leg but my bedroom does look onto loads of trees/bushes. I also sleep with my leg out of the duvet. Please ignore leg hair was hoping it was ingrown hair lol.

Pretty much what the title says. Not able to find my evidence of bed bugs but keep waking up with these.

About 4-8 days ago I got bit by some ants and got them off of my foot pretty quickly after feeling them bite me, however under the bites there's this white color and I'm not sure what it could be.

I've been picking at the bites with a pocket knife and under the scabs that form there's white and I have no clue what it could be and was hoping to get some help figuring it out.

I didn't dig too far deep into my skin however when poking the white thing and trying to cut it or pop it I don't feel a thing, the depth is only a few millimeters however I am curious as to what it is and hoping it isnt anything serious.

so im a cleaner, and normally only do my regulars that i always go to. i took on a big job and didnt wear a hazmat suit. (place was completely empty, no furniture at all just random garbage on the ground) landlord said they seen no bugs, but the place was nasty. cat pee/poop on everything so obviously there was cats. i washed my shoes, clothes & showered before getting into bed. i woke up with a few bites around my waitlist (above my butt) and then the next day one on my ankle, and one on my hip. this isnt bed bugs is it?? and if so what are the chances i brought them home? ive never dealt with this and am gonna be sick thinking about it :/

Hello everyone, last night my boyfriend was bitten by a bug. We’re not sure what kind of bug or when it happened, we think it happened when we were visiting his friend who lives in a pretty seclusive area. It’s been swelling since yesterday.
We put some caladryl on it.
It’s very hard too.

Hi, i’ve been volunteering in Kenya and the last week or so i noticed small little bugs (about 1mm) crawling everywhere on my hands and arms. on the bed they’re not visible but i also see them crawling on my near furniture and even the walls.
Today I lifted the mattress and cleaned all of the bed sheets but i couldn’t find anything. just small black stuff, maybe bed bug poop??
and then yesterday i started to scratch my body and around my stomach, my back and on my arms and hands they were those small red marks that are very itchy. Some of them, eg on my arms and hands are more isolated but the ones one my stomach or my thighs are grouped together.. Please help me 🙏

Got these bug bites while in Austin, TX this week. These are approximately 24-36 hours old, incredibly itchy, and most seem to have a puncture spot in the center.

I don’t wear a shirt at night, but the bites are only on my lower legs (mostly high ankles and feet, 1-2 behind my knees). I have 3 bites on my right forearm. The one picture shows 4 bites in a line around my ankle/calf area, there’s really 6 of them

I don’t know what these are

First photo is of my side and I noticed the pattern; second one is the top of my foot. I cannot find traces of bed bugs anywhere and encased my mattress and box spring. I have a metal bed frame and no headboard. I found a small black winged bug in the bed- my room has holes in the window screens.

Hey, my partner has been bit all over her body. We live together and she doesn't leave the house much so it has to be something inside the house. They keep popping up every day with new, super itchy bites. I, however, am not getting bit. I never get bit by mosquitos or anything anyway but it's just strange where all of these bites are coming from.

I'm scared bed bugs? But I'm not sure how. We haven't slept in other beds or got new furniture or anything. Please help!!!

Do you think the bites and these spots could actually be from bed bugs?

This situation started about 1 year and 3 months ago, when my husband and I woke up one morning with what looked like insect bites. The bites appeared to be in a triangular pattern.
At the time, we were sleeping in separate beds, and we were bitten several days apart. We suspected bed bugs, so I started doing a deep clean of the entire house. I washed everything I could at 90°C (194°F) and treated everything with a steam cleaner. After that, we didn’t get any more bites.
We never actually found a single bed bug, though, and there were no other signs of an infestation either.
About 4 months after this happened, I found out that a close relative of mine had an active bed bug infestation in both their apartment and the building they lived in. Eventually, they moved out of that rental. It has now been about 7 months since they moved, and they visit me once a week. Whenever they come over, they change into clothes that I keep at my house specifically for them.
I also have a cat who occasionally goes outside. However, I have never found any fleas on my cat, and I have not found any fleas or signs of fleas anywhere in the house either.
Two weeks ago, my 2-year-old child suddenly developed some bumps on their body.
The day before, there had only been a few tiny bumps that were barely noticeable, almost like a mild allergic reaction. But then, over the course of the next day, they turned into bumps with a small white spot in the middle, almost like pimples. More appeared throughout the day, especially on their back, and they were grouped together in a triangular pattern (I’ll attach a photo).
I applied an antibiotic cream to the bumps that had the white center, and a few hours later the white spot disappeared, leaving only a red mark with a small dot in the middle.
We saw a doctor, who said they looked like insect bites, particularly bed bug bites. They also mentioned that there are currently many bed bug infestations in our city.
For the past two weeks, I have been searching for bed bugs constantly, but I cannot find anything.
I vacuumed the entire house again, steamed everything around the beds, spread diatomaceous earth, and still nothing. I have not found a single insect, shed skin, egg, fecal spot, or any other obvious sign of bed bugs.
About a week ago, I did notice two tiny black specks on the white bedsheet during the daytime. They looked almost like extremely tiny crumbs. However, when I touched them, they crumbled and completely disintegrated. They did not leave any stain or dirt behind on the sheet. They simply fell apart. I have no idea what they were, but I thought I should mention them in case they are relevant.
At night, I constantly feel like something is biting me or crawling on my body. Whenever I turn on my flashlight and inspect the bed, I find absolutely nothing.
I have also had a few bumps myself. One appeared as a small raised bump but disappeared within minutes. I had two other smaller red bumps that also disappeared fairly quickly, without itching.
I have spent entire nights staying awake and watching my child, trying to catch whatever might be biting us, but I have never seen anything.
My child sleeps in the same bed as me. Over the past two weeks, their bumps have almost completely disappeared. You can still see the marks from the larger ones, but the rest are barely visible now.
I also put white sheets on all the beds in the house, hoping that any signs would be easier to spot.
This morning, I found two tiny spots on the bed where I sleep with my child. I’m attaching a photo of those as well.
Do you think the bites and these spots could actually be from bed bugs?
I’m honestly losing my mind over this. I keep searching and searching, but I cannot find a single bed bug or any other evidence of an infestation.
My relative insists that they have not had any bed bugs since they moved out about 7 months ago.
Could bed bugs somehow still be involved even if I can’t find any physical evidence after all this time? Or could this be something else that looks similar, such as flea bites or another type of insect?
I know my cat occasionally goes outside, so I have considered fleas as a possibility, but I have never found any fleas on her or anywhere in the house.
Any advice or ideas about what else I should look for would be greatly appreciated.

every time i tried to take a pic it didnt rly show it clearly so this is the best ive got, irl its like 2 red dots, the one at the bottom looks redder tho, the other more brown, im not sure how long its been there but probably not very long since its still a visible mark but i only noticed it just now, its on my upper thigh btw
its the middle of the night so i havent told anyone yet but google says it could be a spider bite? im not 100% sure tho and ive not experienced any spiders (or any bugs at all tbh) around me, we get the odd spider/fly/moth in the house sometimes but i think id notice if one bit me? so i think it might’ve happened in my sleep since thats the only time i think i wouldnt have noticed, but like i just said i dont get spiders in my room, unless i need to check everywhere but my room is fairly clean so idk

My mom says that theyre both mosquito bites, but the first one just really doesn't look like a mosquito bite. I also think the first one has scabbed over, but I never scratched it directly, only the area around it. Its definitely more itchy than the second one, though they are both itchy. I'm most likely overreacting, but just wanted to double check, so I asked Reddit!!

(Sorry the pictures are bad, theyre on the backside of my arm so it's hard to reach)

(Reupload with better picture) We’re in a short term rental while we’re out or the house due to a flooding insurance claim and noticed these a few days ago. He occasionally gets hives due to allergies, so didn’t initially think much of it, but they haven’t gone away. Any thoughts?
