Tony’s analysis does seem more likely than mine. Either way, it seems to be a 
chance invader.

I interpreted the two small dots at the back of the head as markings, rather 
than ocelli, so dismissed Lygaeidae. The wing configuration seems much more 
like Miridae, perhaps somewhere near Hoplomachus, but I don't really know the 
North American fauna.

Jessica,

I could be wrong, but it looks like a member of the Lygaeidae (seed bugs) to me.

Hello,
I had sent this around previously but the message might not have gone through.  
We found this inset crawling across the work bench in our lab.  It is 
approximately 4mm long.  Any help with ID would be greatly appreciated.
All best,
Jessica

No, this is a plant bug (Heteroptera) - an accidental visitor that has
flown in or hitched a lift on a member of staff.
