Any clue what this bug is?

Thank you all for the replies. I have contacted an entomologist so hopefully he will be able to tell me for certain what these are.

I also agree that they look like some sort of cricket. Can't wait to know what they are because I have seen them in my yard before and they creeped me out!!

They creep me out too.

I will post as soon as I get a response from the entomologist, if he replies. I can't even take some of them to a local expert, because after a few days of spraying them down with bleach water, I haven't seen any more. So hopefully they are gone, never to return, lol.

Now THAT looks most like my bugs. Do they occur in Canada? Know what to do to get rid of them in a house? Even though I haven't seen them in a few days, I'd like to make sure they don't come back. I am still waiting on a reply from the entomologist I contacted, so I should have an answer from him soon as well.

So, the entomologist got back to me. His professional opinion.............it's a book louse. Thank you to those who already told me that, lol. It was just so hard to tell since they are so darn small.

Well did you instruct the girls no more reading books while in the nest box waiting to lay?
