They are black and wiggly, if i flip one up while trying to murder it then the underside it cream coloured.

They seem to come out when its dark and try to run when I come in a room and put lights on. I live in a tenement flat if thats any help? They are mainly in the bedroom which is the only carpeted room, then only appear on the floor. They are about a cm long. Have seen a couple in bathroom too.

Started appearing a few weeks ago but was just the odd one, today there has been loads help how do i kill the fuckers?? And what are they?? I hoover regularly, esp that room as its a cream carpet.
