Katherine, The imaged beetles resemble Ptinus fur, but those are usually a bit larger than you’ve indicated. I anticipate that others may have a better answer. -Rich

They are each roughly 1-2 mm in length. I believe I also see Ptinus fur on this trap, or something like it. Thanks in advance for your time and input!
