What are these tiny bugs on my stuffed animals?

Stuffed animal being eaten by drugstore beetles
A customer called with small bugs all around the bedroom, especially around the windows. After an investigation, the service technician took samples and identified the insect as a drugstore beetle. The presence of the insect near the windows was not important to discovering the source. The insect was attracted to the light of the window. The Greenhow Pest Control service technician investigated the upstairs looking for anything that could contain organic matter. Obvious sources like vacuum bags, potpourri, and pet bedding were eliminated. Then she noticed dark insects on the belly of this stuffed animal. It turned out to be stuffed with husks from buckwheat that had not been cleaned prior to usage. The beetles were feeding on the husks.
