Pernille,

looks like Anobiidae and could be Xestobium, if the size of the beetles is 
about 5...9mm. But difficult to say, with these pictures.
Any damp wood with exit holes arround?

Hi,

Apologies for the poor images, but could you help me ID the critters below. 
Could they be Death Watch beetles?

I am not a specialist and would worry about crying wolf unnecessarily.

Really appreciate any views.

Kind regards
