Its a may of life or death

I've had the exact same thing everyone is describing infest my house. It happen so quickly within two weeks from the time I saw the first one until they took over my house and I swear they are trying to move me out. They are intelligent, strategic, and very hive like. And they carry scabes! and not only does my entire family have a infestation now we all have scabes! I've had the exterminator 3 times and he says they are carpet beetles but they insist you cant get scabes from a carpet beetle. I beg to differ!

I don't know if this creature you are looking for but this creature is called "Rat-Tailed Maggot". Rat-tailed maggots are the larvae of certain species of hoverflies and very slimy and "tadpole-like".

Has anyone figured out what they are???

Omg I saw one of these big brownish black tadpole things in my toilet and I thought maybe it came from me and I was so confused as to what it was. No matter how much I googled I could not find what it was. I saw 2 of them one did not move but the other was swimming around. Really grossed me out

Have no idea what I’m seeing but everyone in my house think I’m going crazy, I use a powerful flashlight and when I do things happen in my laundry room my upstairs den, when I shine light in certain areas I see black dots appear then disappear, in my laundry room I hear things moving I see things like my saw which is laying on a table shift positions, at first I thought carpet beetles, then some kind of moth, I’m also finding wet spots on my carpet and it’s not water droplets from the dogs as it’s slimy, in my laundry room I think it’s moving through dust as I see it looks to me as eyes looking through the dust bunnies and when I look away and then back again it’s gone, help me please, am I losing my mind, if I can upload videos or pictures let me know how too please..

I am so glad to have found out what this is. It is a Carpet Beetle Larvae. I thought I was being eaten alive but I found out they don't bite. I am allergic to them which makes me think they are biting when they get on my skin and cause welts that I thought were bites. I have never seen one on me. I just happened to see this on a blanket in the closet and was finally able to research it. I had seen the full grown carpet beetles when I found out something had eaten holes in a few sweaters, which I had thought were moths. Was I ever wrong! I have read it is actually the larvae that eat everything, that is how they become adult beetles. I had also seen them in beginning stage as like a black dot or egg that I couldn't figure out what it was and of course felt like I was being bitten. They love dark or damp areas. My husband who is not allergic was really starting to think I was crazy, to the point where I had scheduled a visit to a shrink. He thought a medication I was on was causing a allergic reaction because he could see the welts. He had never seen a bug and never been bitten so it was all me. It was to the point I was afraid I would end up divorced if I mentioned the word bug again. This has been going on for almost a year. Thank goodness I found this first and researched non stop for days on everything about them. I even put the one I found in a zip lock bag for my husband to see when I presented him with the research. It is still alive, a week later still squirming around in a sealed bag. I am waiting on the arrival of the stuff I found during research that had awesome bug free reviews on Amazon. I am looking for a way to upload the photos now.

Hi, I've been reading this forum with no luck, seems like everyone has this problem!! I have a pic tho, so if this is the bug!!! Please explain what it is!! Can't find a look a like pic anywhere on the web!!! Shit there is no link or anything for me to upload my pic anyone know how to upload a pic??? I read how to upload my
Pic but it makes no sense I just have a pic and want to upload it bc I know I have the picture of the bug everyone is wanting to see

I saw something similar tonight on my bathroom sink (almost under the hand soap bottle). thought it was a big hair at first, but as I looked around the bottle, I saw it was more of a 3mm wide at the head hair- like worm (black and shiny, no legs). it had either two antenna,pincers or eyestalks on its head, and I first (before leaning around) thought it was an earwig butt.
it was about an inch long, and tapered more than a tadpole down to a very pointed tipped rear. It looked just like a very thin slug, but when i went to move the soap bottle and squish it, it literally moved so quickly and off the sink(out of sight) that I would say it vanished(or perhaps it jumped).
It had no segments and I know it had no legs.
This thing ive seen does not exist (as it doesnt for many here lol)

successfully identify the tadpole lookalike? I became very interested in the subject.

It was on my water cooler which is white. They were grouped together in an oval like line and there were about 20 or more of them. They were little tiny black worms less than a centimetre tall. They were attached to the cooler by one end and were bending up by the other end in a sort of s movement. They looked like worms bobbing their heads up and down. I wiped them with a tissue and they seemed to be dead. They didn't "run away". I came back later and there were more, spread out, not clumped together like previously. I wish I had taken a picture but didn't think about it until afterwards. They are about the size of the letter S on this page. Tiny little S worms bobbing their heads up and down. I realize there are two different threads going on here about two different bugs but I posted on this one because others have mentioned a similar sighting to the one mentioned here and I was brought to this thread after my Google search. Hope that helps and hope you can tell me what they are. Have never seen them before and am worried they may be some sort of parasite in my bottled water?

These things I have them too and am going crazy they feel like shards of glass when I pull them out you know how to help?

OK guys... I hope I can shed some light on the matter by way of providing some video evidence of what I believe are these same creatures! VICTIMS PLEASE CONCUR! BUG EXPERTS PLEASE HELP! This is the YouTube link which I have just uploaded - hope it's clear from there: https://youtu.be/1qQNABtk18Q

i saw one of these creepy little things today. it shocked me ! i had never seen anything like it. the tadpole creature was all black, no visible legs, no antennae. i saw it in my locker, the creature was very fast. here, i drew a picture for those who believe it to be a silverfish, firebrat, ect:

edit: it seems most sightings of this thing are in Pennsylvania ? which is where i am.

I have been bouncing back and forth to this thread for years. I live in a basement apartment, been here for a few years. A year ago I was using the bathroom when I noticed a weird black squiggle thing that moved really fast and shimmied out of my radiator. When I screamed, it took off pretty quickly. Throughout the years I've been able to squish a few but they really just disintegrate which is creepy. Today I found one and doused it pretty heavily in fragrant perfume and it stayed immobile. I was able to take a picture, so I'm going to try to figure out how to post it.

About an inch long or longer--long antennae--wriggling fast, like snakes--there on a large pillow near my bed, late at night, summer, NYC, tonight. UGH. Killed them both. Sprayed room w. bug spray. Shook out lots of boric acid over floor. Floorboards do NOT meet the wall. I live on top floor of bldg. What are these creepy squirmers? Luckily, I sleep w. earplugs anyway. Will call exterminator tomorrow.

Rat-tail maggots? They are very tadpole like...

I just found one of those creepy slug-like, black, no legged, slithery, tadpole things in my room as I was cleaning it up, there's a hole that connects right to the basement. The bug moved really fast and so far I've only found one, got a little to creeped out to catch it, but if I find another one I'll defiantly catch it and take a picture.

I had this problem for a year until I finally found out it is a baby silverfish! I know this is probably not the answer, but I thought it was a sluggish tadpole black bug that moves very fast at first, then I took a closer look, and saw the legs! The legs are almost invisible because it is a baby silverfish, so the legs are clearly very invisible when the silverfish is running. I promise you that this solved the mystery of the black tadpole like thing in my bathroom, so I hope this is your answer also.

There is a parasite called "Vandellia Cirrhosa" but are found in water or near it because they are closely related to Cat Fish they can live on land for short times and rarely attack humans but when they do they carry deadly diseases that require surgery for most but some are curable with just drugs of some sort and the bites can cause whats called "River Blindness" if they are from Africa.http://www.iflscience.com/health-and-medicine/six-human-parasites-you-definitely-don%E2%80%99t-want-host They are 2nd from the bottom on the list

I was outside the other day and a weird bug similar to this description but with wings bit me in the neck leaving a red swollen mark. I thhink one way you can try get rid of them is extreme heat or cold EG; Heating fan cooling fan etc or maybe poison of some sort?

I found about 20 of these small worms crawling on top of my dryer , they could stand almost straight up and some hung from some type if web? I was thinking they could be some type of silkworm. They were tiny, black in color and looked like a tadpole. Has anyone found out exactly what they are?

Honestly, I had no luck trying to figure this bug thing out. I will try to post a picture, but I don't know. They move very fast!

i live in Serbia and i have the same problem with these little things. i've been dealing with these bugs for a while and i did not found out what they are or from where they come from.. i've been looking on internet for the answer and didn't found much. i found some people with the same description and features but they didn't got the right answer. A lot of people think they are silverfish or centipede but i know they are not. I will try to describe with what i've been dealing with: they are about 0.5 cm to 1 cm long, with slim body that kind of reminds on millipede body, they are shiny light brown in color that sometimes seems to look even lighter and shinier when moving, oh and yeah one of most striking thing about them is their speed. Oh they move so fast :/ they don't seems to have antennae or legs(but they probably have a looot of legs when they're moving so fast)..
i noticed that i usually find them individually. i find them when least expected, in my closet, on the walls or hiding in books,under bed and such, they always suprise me(not in a very good way haha).
i prefer to kill insects without coming in touch with them, so i am usually using some bug spray or poison powder which doesn't seems to affect on these creatures, it seems that the only way to kill them is to smash them. i will try to take some pictures of them, but i am not sure i will make it because they are small and fast but i will try.. i am really annoyed by them, but even more annoyed by the fact that i can't find out what are they, what is name for them?...

It sounds like a drain worm to me...and I think they r hard to get rid of.
