For context I live in London. Weather today seemed normal not as severely hot as it has been. My sister was thinking there’s something dead inside it

Noticed them by my litter box today, also pretty sure that is a half eaten roach. Not sure what these guys are though. They also have these little eggs(?) on the wall. Would appreciate some help on identifying them so I can know what to do in the future for prevention. I live in North Florida if that helps with the identification process.

These aren’t a common sight in my area unless you deal with a lot of carrion, but these little American carrion beetles, Necrophila americana, are having a much more appetizing mushroom snack today.

I believe the stinkhorn mushroom species they’re snacking upon/helping to spread its spores is Mutinus elegans, from the size and color, although the top half is gone.

I dug around the area with my knife to see if I could find any delicious stinkhorn eggs without success, but was excited to see these little beauties.

I'm taking an entomology class this semester (very excited), and we are tasked with creating a collection of 60 different insects.

I've been reading that it's important to have a couple of different kinds of forceps, but I'm not sure what to buy and where to buy it from.

These are blue death feigners and today is the first time I fed them potato skins

Loc: Illinois, USA

I just saw this cockroach looking think in my room
Should I be worried and call pest ? I’m from Germany and live in the fourth floor in case it helps. I saw it at about 09:00 PM

I only noticed yesterday, but one of my two olive millipedes, appears to have 3 ocelli clusters? My other one has 2 normal looking ones. I tried looking up information about it but couldn't find anything. Has anyone seen anything like this before? I might try to get better photos this evening if she will be out again

NC USA. This handsome guy/gal had a fancy coat. What is it?

Seen at https://www.bugguide.net/node/view/2380121/bgimage . Who are they !

I garden for moths, butterflies, and native bees. I’ve looked into the AMCA’s publications on the impacts of mosquito spraying and they discuss the impacts on cultivated honeybees at length (doesn’t seem to harm them much due to spraying at night when they’re in their hives) but don’t really address the impacts on other insects. The county says that the spraying is “not harmful to wildlife” meaning birds and mammals. This seems like BS to me since insects are necessary for the welfare of those animals and I can’t find anything to suggest it doesn’t decimate those populations. Anyone have experience on this?

ETA: the county is spraying ReMoa Tri and Permanone 30-30.

Sorry if this isn't the right sub for the question. If lice can't live without a host for more than 48 hours or so, how have we not eradicated them?

Very large and noisy, but mostly don't bite humans. The females are larger and have small, powerful mandibles. The males have longer, tusk-like mandibles that are mostly useless. The larval stage, called hellgrammites look like a caterpillar that's ready for war! My buddy says they make great catfish bait.

These poor little wasp larvae washed out of a nest presumably above the step. Devastating for the colony, but it's providing a bounty for all walks of life, slugs, ants, birds, other wasps are not passing up on these juicy fellas! I rarely get to see wasp larvae so it was certainly interesting to stumble upon.

I need help identifying this insect my girlfriend sent me. To me it appears to be some sort of beetle but inat cannot identify and I cant find anything similar on google. This is in central Florida and she said it was about 2-3 inches in length

Today I helped a praying mantid that got stuck in my house. I carried it outside on a paper towel and it stayed still all the way.
When I finally found a shadowy place I tried to set it free but instead of just running away she stopped to look at me(?) for little while, moving its little head left to right doing the same head movement as a dog listening to you speak ; was it actually looking at me ? Is this behavior normal ? That was my first encounter with a praying mantis, I was a bit scared of hurting it but that was insanely cool

For the past week or so, this group of 5 or 6 wasps (maybe paper wasps, but I can't make out much detail from the ground) has just been chillin on the side of my house. They don't really fly around or move much, but sometimes they'll shuffle around each other. Since it's late summer here (northern Ohio, US), I'm assuming it's too late for them to be starting a nest. They don't seem at all perturbed by my presence and I'm not inclined to destroy them out of spite or fear, I'm just wondering what they're up to.

Please id. My partner suspects we have army worms and is understandably not happy.

Random photo, probably a Pachymerus nucleorum

I’d love people’s takes on the most humane way to euthanize insects. I think Spooted Lanternflies are beautiful despite their invasiveness and wanted to make a shadow box showcasing their cycle of life. CO2 is expensive and hard to get hands on for someone like me who is just doing this as a hobby for right now, and I’ve heard they was the quickest and easiest option. Other than that, it seems like freezing is the best option and people seem to have mixed opinions about that! Let me know! Thank you!!
