Little white rock insects #681735

Asked February 25, 2021, 12:37 AM EST

They are white rock looking and are all over this house and my dog and me. They fly and bite and burrow under the skin making worm like creatures. What are these things?

Expert Response

Sorry, the images don't show anything that looks like an insect and I am not aware of any white flying insects that bite and burrow into skin. 

I would suggest you catch the potential insects if possible, put them in a small container or vial like a pill bottle and take or send them to your county OSU Extension office for identification. 

If you are experiencing skin irritation I would also suggest you visit your family doctor (and a vet for the dog) to receive a medical diagnosis and treatment.

Here are closer pics and I have captured an entire dog bed full so I have plenty of evidence and will be seeing the vet soon and give you and update
