Please take a photo of your critter and send it in on this site so we can help you identify it. Many insects get into our homes and they do not want to be there. They are not pests, but come in where we have holes in windows or doors or dryer vents. It is best to caulk those holes and not spray for something that is not a pest.

Send us a photo so we can help. The big box stores do not have entomologists nor gardeners on staff. Let us help!
strange small flying brown bugs
by: Darlene Harper

I have tried all kinds of bug spray so i went to home depot and i took some bugs with me in a bag to show them so they could identify them for me and they could not so they told me that ortho was the best and that would stop them from coming in my house and i would only have to use it was and no more for another year but not they keep flying inside my house and i dont no how they keep getting in. p.s. feed up.

Your photo is not of a June beetle. Their bodies are wider in proportion to length and much chunkier.
This beetle is one of the darkling beetles, family Tenebrionidae. It may be a long-jointed beetle, but without seeing the legs, clearer antennal segments, and clearer image of the neck and back, it is hard to know for sure.
This family of beetles feed on decaying plant material.
