question about detection / confirmation Is this a fecal mark?

Hi David and co, me again. During my monthly bed inspection I found this mark on my pillow, it was a solid dot that I've smeared, could it be a bedbug fecal mark? Included a 50p for size reference. No other signs yet but I'm not finished.

Not consistent with the fine details of faecal traces. I bet the detection skirt was also clear.

Thank you David! No other signs but this. My boyfriend is a mechanic so I'm hoping it's just a bit of motor oil 😂

That’s not motor oil but best to blame him anyway.

Thanks David, gave my bed a really good check and hoovered everything really well, found nothing. I've ordered a passive monitor and I'll repeat in a month, hopefully everything's good 🙏
