Oh my goodness!! take the picture or the live bugs to a garden nursery and ask them!! Do it before they get in your house. If you take them to a nursery, wear gloves prior to handling! You have no idea what they might be!!
Take the photo AND a couple bugs (in a jar) to your local Extension Office. Someone there will probably know and recommend a fix.
IF they are larvae a simple spray with bT will kill many. But I seriously suggest/agree that an ID from the Extension is the best idea!

I know what they are. They are disgusting (as are most bugs)! 😱🙂
They could be slaters (I'm from Australia), not harmful, dwell wherever there's dead, dry organic material to devour. If you have chickens, they will think all their Christmases have come at once - they love them! They're an important part of the eco-system so no need to get the pest exterminator out!
