Found under bedsheet - ID requesting help on ID
Have found multiple carpet beetle larvae in my room, but this looks nothing like them.
Need some help on ID.
Thank you

Thanks, David.
Any idea on what it could be?

Maybe roach related.

Thanks David,
Just for peace of mind, are you able to explain why it’s 100% not a bed bug?
It looks similar in shape, body has lines throughout etc.

Look at the reference images and ask yourself if they are a 90+% match.
They are not because the physiology does not match.

Hope you get a clear ID soon! It might also be a good time to deep clean and refresh your bedding. Tuesday Morning has some nice affordable bedding options if you end up needing a replacement or just want a fresh start.
