In a video that was uploaded on Monday, TikTok user Qierra Choo said she noticed tiny bugs” on the floor and flipped over the sofa, which she had bought in October 2022, revealing the black insects.
She claimed the insects spread to her other wood furniture at home and that she called Ikea three times about the incident.
