American spider beetle

This photo was sent earlier and here is the response I gave.
See site at bottom.

It is a beetle that looks like a spider.
This beetle is like larder beetles and pantry moths, being a pest in homes eating grains, leather, and all kinds of pantry crumbs.
Not sure why they are in just your daughters bed unless she is eating crackers under the covers! :-) Perhaps she and her dolls are having a tea party at night! :-)
Rather than writing all the info here please see the following website. It has great info for this beetle.
