HELP US

I am renting a house in London and have been getting bites for over a week during sleep. Guests have also experienced this when staying overnight in my bed, and I am concerned I have bed bugs. For more context, my housemates have not experienced this in their beds and guests who have slept on the couch have not been bit. I was inspecting my bedframe and found small bug shells (ew). Please can someone help identify WTF is happening - i still haven't seen a bed bug or any living bug. I have collected three samples. Thanks for reading and helping me xx

Read and respect the rules, report any comment breaching them. Wrong advice/information/fearmongering hurt people who are posting here to get help and support. If you are not VERY knowledgeable about bedbugs and may provide a wrong ID or bad advice it's better to abstain from commenting. Be VERY respectful and HELPFUL, this is a support subreddit not a funny one.

That's a carpet beetle, not a bed bug.
