It looks a little like a warehouse beetle larva, but I am not sure. Both photos are of the same larva. The length of the whole body is about 6mm. The fine hairs seem quite long. It is a browninsh-tan with some gray. The speckling does not seem to be dust from the walls or floors but actual coloring. Thanks for your assistance!
