Thanks Pete ... I had a gander at a few such sites and discounted book
lice on the grounds of size (mine are bigger at upto 3mm long). They do
look like em though, so maybe they are a relative. Seem to only come out
in numbers in the evening too ... weird.

When a kid I had cupboard with a fishtank on and they loved that. They
also made a ticking noise at night which would resonate through the
cupboard:

I then had to hit the cupboad to shut them up, and startled the poor
fish!

worms ... could be infant earthy's, though I'm not sure, they are
very persistent ones though to get through the wall/floor and tanking etc.

If it's chemical tanking maybe the chemicals are making them come out.

cheers,
Pete.
