Question
I found tiny blackish worms on the top sheet of my daughters and my beds.....ewwwww..

Answer
I suspect they are not from inside your animals. They may have been brought in from the outside in the fur coats, or you could be seeing flea feces if they did not move. To tell, scrape some into some alcohol - like vodka and take them to your veterinarian. If she does not know what they are, go to your local agricultural extension office.

Email me at HealthyAnimals@aol.com when you find out what they are. Thanks.
