What is this?? Found it in my bathroom on the shelf above my toilet.

I am assuming these actually aren’t ladybugs, wondering what they are? they’re pretty cute

Got an accidental poke in Show low, Arizona. Who's this little gal/guy? And with some hatched babies? Orangish red, with white pinstripes along the back. Spines are all black with light tips.

tia / Thanks all

This Lil guy is adorable.

Hi there, I’m freaking out a bit.

I found both of these on my kitchen floor today, a few hours apart. Yesterday I found one on my front porch. A couple of months ago, I also found two under a bucket in my garage near the garage entrance.

I’m in Arkansas. I’m hoping someone can help identify what kind of cockroach these are and whether this points to an infestation inside my house or if they’re just wandering in from outside.

South Illinois

Minnesota here and I see these things in my compost. They curl their tail up like a scorpion lol they look like devils coach horse, but they are brown...

Hi! I found this bug on my leg while lying in bed. I had just changed the bed sheets with a duvet cover that had been stored in a closet for a while.
Location: Málaga, Spain.
Size: About the size of a small fly or a lentil (around 4–6 mm).
Color: Brown/reddish-brown.
Shape: It looked like a small seed or little ball. The legs were not very visible because they seemed tucked underneath the body.
It was walking normally, not jumping or flying.
I crushed it and there was no blood.
Does anyone know what it could be? I’m mainly wondering whether it’s a harmless beetle or something like a bed bug or tick.
Thanks!

I have loads of these little dark brown bugs seemingly coming out of my bathroom window hinge. Does anybody know what they are? They're aproximately 3 mm long and I live in Western Europe.

it had 6 legs, a yellow underbelly, two protruding front-facing mandibles (NOT ANTENNAE, they did not wiggle - and it got one under my fingernail and tried to lift it up at one point)
its tail is prehensile and it often pressed it up against my skin as if using it like a 7th leg while heartily crawling about
very friendly, i put it outside on one of the bushes
a few times i tried to pin it in place gently with my fingers, but it unhurriedly escaped each time, and rarely stopped moving

if desired/needed, i can measure one of my keyboard keys to get a good estimate of its actual length

looking at the keyboard photo, wow it sure does have short antennae

Found outside the restaurant I’m eating

Twin Lake Michigan -

I’ve been having issues with these tiny gnats. ChatGPT identified them as Fungus Gnats. I’m not sure.

I don’t notice them much during the day. They hover around me usually at night while I’m on the couch reading. They seem to fly around my face, and occasionally land on my shirt. Sometimes I hear a buzzing sound much like a fly, near my ear (as opposed to a mosquito). Can anyone identify these? There is probably more than one type of insect. What is the best way to clear them out?

They are very much attracted to the bug zapper and all these photos are bugs that got zapped.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts!
