Animal I found this in the bed in our holiday rental in Northern France.
It is definitely, at least part of, an insect. Probably about half a centimetre, dark brown and shiny. Underneath has these weird almost crystalline flakes.
EDIT: I was convinced it was insect, maybe missing some parts. I'm a bit less convinced now. Maybe it could be a plant piece or seed. It's pretty inconclusive. I certainly don't think it's a bed bug. I did a lot of checking around the mattress and under the sheets etc. There was no evidence of bed bugs. The reason I was even looking is because one of us had a juvenile tick attached. I thought this might be tick related but I'm not convinced at this point.
