So, I have two small insects that I can't seem to identify [you wouldn't believe the number of hours I've spent looking for them!] Two photographs of each insect can be found here: http://cph.morbidlemon.co.uk/bugsshow.jpg
Top one is 2mm long, reddish-brown abdomen/wing casing which is also smooth [not ridged like some beetles], dark thorax/head/legs. Slightly feathered/clubbed antennae, has the 'pointy' bit at the rear of the abdomen. I thought it might have been a woodworm beetle or other pest, but having caught it and looked closely I don't think it is.
Bottom one is 3mm long, grey/white [abdomen/thorax/head] with some black speckling. It doesn't have the 'pointy' end [I wish I remembered the proper word for that] like the other. Dark legs, also has slightly feathered/clubbed antennae. Initially thought it was a carpet beetle as I've seen those before, but again on closer inspection I'm not sure it is.
Both found near indoor plant pots. What are they? Thanks!
