Every morning, a mother would discover a strange pile in her daughter’s room until one day she finally realized it was…

“I poured the contents out and there were these pearls!!! I laughed for 30 minutes. Imagine my relief.

Amid concerns about unknown parasites, Kelli Tarin reached out to the Facebook community, generating widespread interest and thousands of comments.

KELLI TARIN’S MYSTERIOUS DISCOVERY
After moving into a rental apartment in Texas, Kelli Tarin and her family struggled with pest problems that required them to repeatedly contact the landlord and pest experts. “Does anyone know what this could be?” I found two piles. Only in my daughter’s room. I clean it almost every day. “This happened FAST,” wrote Kelli Tarin, sharing a photo of a mysterious buildup that looked like “coffee grounds.” The mother’s post prompted several attempts at diagnosis; she was also asked to monitor the room with a camera to learn what was causing the black balls.

Netizens’ Opinions
Among the many conjectures, another person raised the possibility that small insects shared a similar personal experience. “I can’t say for sure, but I’ll be honest: if they are small ‘flying ants,’ they are some kind of termite. I had them in my first house as an adult and they arrived, I vacuumed and they reappeared,” one user said. As new suggestions came in, the mother updated her post to reflect the growing suggestions and hypotheses, including the idea that they could be “rat droppings.”

KELLI TARIN’S DEADLINE
Kelli Tarin also revealed that despite the involvement of two pest control companies, such a case had never occurred before. “We called TWO pest control companies yesterday. TWO of them literally told us they’d never seen anything like this. Ever,” she shared. She methodically ruled out several common pests and noted that the experts had dismissed the termite hypothesis due to the atypical nature of the residue found. While the idea that the piles were mouse droppings seemed plausible, Kelli Tarin concluded that they didn’t fit that description.
KELLI TARIN’S EXONERATION
It was a comment on her Facebook post that made Kelli Tarin reconsider the nature of the problem by mentioning a disemboweled teddy bear. After Kelli Tarin found a lavender teddy bear among the toys and threw it out because she thought it was infested, she was surprised to find the problem was actually inside the toy. “I poured the contents out and these beads were there!!! I laughed for 30 minutes. Imagine my relief.”
