Is there a certain size that bugs don’t have to be checked anymore because they’re too small and if yes what is the size? And what is the source of this size?

1The question is, when we say a bug is too small to need to be checked, do we mean it is not identifiable as a bug but you can see a speck there, or do we mean you can't see anything there at all. If the latter, that is an issue, because the human eye is capable of seeing a speck down to about 1/10th of the width of a human hair. – The GRAPKE Jan 12 '24 at 09:48

Seemingly you should really be asking a size whereby you can eat it. Checking just follows from a prohibition on consumption – Double AA Jan 12 '24 at 11:31
