What are these bugs?

They're very small, and they look like some kind of beetle. They usually crawl, but I've seen them fly short distances. Are they harmful to plants?

Looks like a carpet beetle, they're typically not harmful to plants.
Carpet beetle! I have some of those in my room they’re a very common pest. I’ve never seen them on any of my plants, and google says they don’t care for plants (they feed on wood and dead skin and such.) I wouldnt worry too much about them unless there’s like a colony of them, but that’s the same for any bug that finds its way in.
These things are so annoying!!! My house gets attacked by them every year, nearly all year long. You already got answers for your question, but I wouldn’t ignore them if possible because they will start an infestation so fast. I try to vacuum as often as I can and spray, but I still find them everywhere 😐.
@itsjordan I squish about 5 of them every day 😶
They're annoying, but at least they're not super harmful
