Default Spider Web problem at night?

...

almost unbelievably, i HAVE had this problem!

in our case, it was bird mites. there had been birds nesting in the roof -
after they all left home, the homeless mites began to drift down through
the ceiling. we thought we would go insane, because we didn't know what it
was. i put white paper out & eventually we were able to spot them landing
on the paper on the table (they are near-microscopic). then, we thought we
would go insane because of the disgustingness of it all.

some pest dude came around & pesticided them all to death & that was the
end of it.

Hmm... it might be mites. I've seen tiny red spiders occasionally - and
apparently they are some sort of mites.

What was the name of the pest company that you got?
