Can anyone identify this red bug?

Tyrenta on Aug 14, 2014A bit more info -- it seems they are living on the stalks of my large yellow flowers (don't know what kind) and I had brushed against them -- there are hundreds of them. They don't appear round and are larger than spider mites I've seen. What are they and how do I get rid of these!? the pictures were taken at night I hope they are clear.Helpful Reply
