Need Help I.D.ing This Bug
A friend found a bunch of these tiny buggers in a box. Any idea what they are?
They are approx. the size of the head of a pin.
(I tried to put a quarter next to one, but the bug was about the size of George Washington's nose and did not photograph well.)
And yes, they are free to a good home.

It’s a weevil (family Curculionidae), but I can’t ID it to species.
