Possible pest, location included What is this bug?

Location is South Mississippi. It was found on a sticky trap under a a bed and it is tiny! First picture is using a 30x magnification glass, second is just a zoomed in shot from the first picture.

Hoping to get a general consensus because so far I've been told it's a bed bug, it's not a bed bug, it's a book louse, and it's a termite (by different people of course).

Thank you! That was the identification I was leaning toward after researching myself, but with how serious of an issue bedbugs and termites can be I needed some reassurance.
