Look a bit like Termites to me. Google "Termites" and then click the
Images option. Not exactly the same, but close.

yeh iwas thinking the same thing

i've done that and i couldnt find anything exactly like them.

i was a bit stressed that they may have been termites

they are only very tiny maybe at the largest being about 3mm long




I found the pic through google groups. They do look like termites, we have
some round here that are about that size. There are many species round the
world, you would need to be an expert to say exactly which one.

Is your house timber? fade up music from the movie jaws
