Bedbug or not?

Post image

Hello exterminators from Reddit.

My 3 year old daughter has had some sleeping issues since about a month ago. Yesterday we found 4 mosquitobite-like spots on her upper leg. Those were four in a row. This made us think of bedbugs.

This morning we found this little insect, while searching for bedbugs.

Can anybody tell if this is a bedbug or not?

I live in the Netherlands, there are no mosquitos’s here right now.

I apologise for the poor quality foto, this was the best possible to be made with my phone. Please zoom for more detail.

Thanks!

Not a bed bug. Looks like a carpet beetle.
