    So what are these sentient dots? I keep seeing them everywhere, but no one else around me does. This is the first time I’ve seen anyone else acknowledge their existence.

        Red spider mite is the common name for Tetranychus urticae. That’s quite the specific ID for such a terrible picture. I don’t think it’s correct, Trombidiidae seems more likely (and those are predators).

          You know what, I think you are right. I was hasty and the shape fits your suggestion better.
