What bug is on the outside of my coop??

[Marva Kumpf]

Can someone please tell me what kind of bug this is?? They are on the outside of he coop for now, tiny things about the air of a pen point. I checked one bird no bugs on her. This is my first year with chickens and it is winter here in MD.

Looks like it may be termites

Vinegar with orange oil in it works great to kill bugs. So does a spray bottle filled with water & a couple drops of liquid dish soap.

It's possible it's termites...they get blurry on my phone when I try to zoom in. But I found this if it helps.

Not termites. Antannae are entirely different. I'd send that photo to your County Agricultural Extension Agency, entymology dept.

I vote baby stink bugs

They are aphids.

Based on @WhiteWyan post #20, I am probably wrong.
