The shape and color are reminiscent of common softgels, such as fish oil, vitamin E, or krill oil supplements. They fall easily and can slip into bedding unnoticed. If you or someone you know is taking supplements, check for compatibility.
2. Seeds: Less likely, but some seeds—like pomegranate or date seeds—can have a smooth, dark appearance. However, seeds typically have a more fibrous or matte texture, unlike the shiny, gelatinous surface seen here.
3. Insect Sheds or Droppings?
It’s a common fear: thinking it’s something insect-related. Fortunately, these objects don’t resemble insect eggs, larvae, or droppings. Most insect eggs are white or translucent and irregularly shaped. Here, the objects are too uniform and polished to be insect matter.
4. Edible Candy or Pearls
Some candies or edible decorations used in baking can look like this. However, the likelihood of them suddenly appearing on a bed without any food present is very low.

What to do?
Check for nearby supplements or medications. Look for dropped capsules or open boxes.
Ask other members of the household. Someone may have dropped something without realizing it.
