Booklouse

7500.    Montreal, Quebec Canada

Number 7500.     This appears to be a booklouse (Psocodea: Liposcelidae). These basically are nuisance pests, feeding primarily on mould spores including mould that grows from the paste used in the binding of old books and wallpaper, or sometimes they can even feed on the paste itself. They require high humidity in order to persist in an environment. See booklouse detailed information .
