How far are meteoroids from the sun?
Meteoroids are small rocky or metallic objects that orbit the sun, so they can be found at varying distances depending on their specific orbit. They can be found anywhere from close to the sun, near Mercury's orbit, to out beyond Neptune in the Kuiper Belt.
Do meteoroids produce their own light?

Where are meteoroids located?
Meteoroids are located throughout the solar system, with many of them found in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Others can be found in orbits that intersect Earth's path, leading to potential meteor showers when they enter Earth's atmosphere. Some meteoroids can also come from comets in orbit around the sun.
Why do meteoroids hit Mercury but not other planets?
Meteoroids are small enough that they will usually disintegrate when they enter a planet's atmosphere. Mercury has no atmosphere to speak of, and so it is not shielded in this way. Larger asteroids still do strike other planets.
