Tiny white bugs

[letitsnowletitsnowletitsnowww]

What are these tiny bugs? Found them on a book I kept in the bathroom.

Mites. Often find them in flour.

Book lice? I have them in my bathroom too

Book lice, they will eat anything paper.

Yes they look like book lice I get them in my bathroom

Thanks all for your answers. From what I've read they're harmless?

Harmless for you. But they breed quickly and eat everything

Look like mould mites to me.

What do you mean everything?

Sorry op, your response there made me chuckle!

Def exterminate

I do conservation work and it’s a pest we do not want. We use a special brush and hoover to get rid of every last one. This isn’t something you want. They are a pest. They will breed and eat their way through anything paper. So they will infest other rooms. Books and wallpaper. It will start to look like lace.

Seriously, book lice are not something I’d be happy to have living in my home. Exterminate.

Thanks all for your replies. I guess keeping books in the bathroom was a bad idea. Also, maybe they came from some second hand books I picked up 😩, that's the one I found them on.
What do you all do to exterminate them? From what I've read just dehumidifier, vacuum etc

Yes they will have come in on the second hand books. You can keep them in the bathroom. But get rid of the lice first. Vacuuming is probably the best way. Then vacuum any cracks or tiles they can lurk in.
