@Bugboy I SUMMON THEE, LEND ME YOUR AID
I've found three of these little guys. They're super tiny, that's the clearest picture I could get on my phone. It was probably an eighth of an inch, maybe even less. One was in a laundry sheet, one was on the bed, one was on the bathroom wall, three in a couple days, have never seen them before. My google-fu suggests they might be larval Carpet Beetles, but I am not 100% certain.
My questions are:
1. Am I correct in my identification, or no?
2. Is 3 in just a couple of days sign that they've infested or that there are a ton of them? Can they deal damage?
3. At what level of orbit do I nuke it (just to be sure)? (what do I do)

It can be a sign of infestation, if you see a few more over the next few days call an exterminator.
Carpet beetles can inflict damage, but I don't have the experience with them to know how much and what sort of action is appropriate.
strangely this advice works for most household insect infestations
