What's this little guy?
Snuck into my house in Central Florida. Looks like the invasive Japanese beetles they get farther north without the pretty colors, but then so do a lot of beetles. I don't know enough to get anywhere googling. Is it going back outside?
North of Spain. I'm also curious about the structure they are in, is it made by them?

Found in cupboard

I wanted to grow oyster mushrooms but instead got this larvae (London,UK)
I attempted to grow oyster mushrooms in a plastic container from soup. I used cardboard soaked in water and oyster mushrooms roots and in a first few weeks all was good - it started occupying the entire container but recently I drilled a couple of holes in the container for mushrooms to go outside but it didn’t and instead I observed this larvae in the water drop on top of container

What are is the bug eating the caterpillar? Austin, TX
Who is this dancing guy?
He jumped on me after this.


Is this a tick and/or did it eat?
Looked up pictures of an engorged tick but this looks a bit different. Still a bit scared because the abdomen is a dark red. Please don’t be a tick. Thank you for the help




Crawled up my sink
a produce pest in guessing. it's got so much tenacity though. climbed up a whole sink. it's on the go (where is it going?) and not drying out like most I'm used to seeing.






What is this bug? See description
(Hair stuck to it, not antennas). Very intrusive black flying bug that congregates around lights at night. They land on my hair, neck, hand etc. saw a frog eat one but spit it right back out. I am in central Arkansas.
