I have seen these little red specks on brick walls, particularly in the 
sunshine, but never knew what they were.  I finally got one positioned on 
the white mortar between bricks, where contrast was better.  They are called 
Clover Mites, and are often seen in the Eastern U.S. in the late Spring, on 
bricks and concrete.  They are less than 1 mm in length.
