What are these bugs?


Question
random bug?
random bug?  
I have just moved into a brand new apartment building in Waterloo Ontario. We have wood flooring, and the stairs have not been completed as it is still under construction (so more wood). These bugs are extremely small, cannot fly, have small bulbs at the end of their antenna and crawl all over walls or anything else around. I have only seen two since I have noticed the first one. If you could let me know that would be great!

Answer
Walser,

I can't see this clearly enough to id but it is a beetle. Since you have seen so few my guess is these are just an "incidental" species that got trapped inside the building during construction. If you have specific concerns post a follow up.
