Hi Jo, I think the third image is of a fungus beetle, while these aren’t typically a danger to collections, they can sometimes indicate an area which is experiencing high humidity.

We are located in Wisconsin and very cold, so I don’t believe pests are making their way in from outdoors. We have a concrete building, and all of the wood used to build out spaces was heat treated before being brought indoors, (with the exception of a few reclaimed windows that somehow made it in without prior treatment). The images are not great, but I’m hoping good enough for identification. All of the pests are very tiny, you will see a pencil tip for scale.
