Bug Identification

Can anyone tell me what this bug is and how to get rid of them. They seem to be confined to room in my house. the only room with a laminate wood florr so they may have something to do with wood. They are tiny....not even the size of a dry grain of rice. They crawl out from somewhere but they all seem to die not long after they crawl out. They come out any time of day and I can get up to 10 newones in a dead. Any ideas?????? heres a really zoomed in pic. They are really tiny.

Looks like wood boring weevil, you may need to contact a professional to make sure you get rid of them all.

The carapace looks like a beetle of sorts.

Kinda fits into a Buprestidae or Cerambycidae but not quite right.

Have a look through here and you can see if you can match it. 11 pages.

The cost of an exterminator is definitely the lesser of two weevils!
