The insect has wings but they always seem to fall off and they just crawl around. Does any one have any idea what they are and how they are getting in my room??? I do leave my window open during the day but there is a screen. Also, I have my a/c vent open but I am not even sure that they are coming in through there. Can anyone help?

it might be termites.. they look a lot like flying ants... they tend to fly about when its their swarming season and sometimes they fall and look like drunk ants, they seem disoriented.. They dont need a window or screen, they might emerge from a tiny crack in the wall, flooring, or whereever there is wood.. You might want to trap a few in a jar and find a pest control company to tell you what they are to be sure.. otherwise, if its nothing more than fruit flies, or gnats,, you just need to find the source, might be some left out food, or bananas you just bought and left out in your kitchen, those little buggers can appear and thrive for a long time...

Sure you didn't drop some crumbs or have food about? Fruit flies...or a pet been there? Other than that, something is coming thru the window....?

CAN YOU SPELL.....INFESTATION.
WELL TO PUT IT DIRECT,YOU WILL SOON BE FULL OF FLEAS.WHEN YOU SEE BUGS ON YOUR CARPET,IT IS USEUALLY FOLLOWED BY FLEAS AND TICKS.I DONT KNOW HOW CLEAN YOUR HOME IS,BUT YOU SHOULD VACUM AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK,NOT ONCE A YEAR.
VACUMING SHOULD BE DONE ON A WEEKLY BASIS,NOT JUST FOR DIRT AND DUST,BUT TO KEEP FROM INSECTS AND EGGS THAT YOU BRING IN FROM OUTSIDE (ON YOUR SOLES OF YOUR SHOES) FROM HATCHING....GOOD LUCK AND BUY LOTS OF ...RAID...LOTS

termites, looking for water and more wood...they come from the walls and small holes, screens,....close up holes and good luck. i spray them with window cleaner and they are goners. i find them disgusting....if you rent call the landlord to complain...if you won, it will be expensive to get rid of them.

Sounds like termites. Bad news if it is. Look up termites in wikipedia to see if they look like that.
