Bug identification
 
Just found the second one in the same area of our interior. This bug is
about 1/4" long, and the same width for its whole length except for a
waist that's so small it's almost imperceptible. It jumps a foot or two
when disturbed, with a definite CLICK sound. It may have tiny, thin
wings. Can't get a picture and can't find one on line; insect identification
sites aren't any help. What can it be?

Look up click beetle. Coming from the flower beds around the
foundation..or attracted to the porch lights at night then getting in.
