Mites in kitchen

Over the last couple of days I've been finding tiny little mites on my kitchen floor next to the back door. They look like poppy seeds and they're not moving but when I sweep them up more appear the next day. Does anyone know what they are and how I can deter them please?

Are they coming from your flour?

Will check now.

It won’t let me post a photo for some reason.

I think photos can take a while to load

I actually think they might be mouse droppings now!

how many are you getting?! Any chance you can try and upload a photo again?

There are a lot! Took a photo to Robert Dyas and have bought a couple of traps. Terrified to go in the kitchen now!
