my mom found him outside and he wasn’t moving so she brought him in. yes, i did tell her that he was probably fine and should’ve been left out there but i figured since he was already inside i could get a few cute videos. he went right back outside after this and we made sure he had lots of leaf litter to hang out in

edit: in the twin cities area

Found inside crawling above my laundry pile, just got back from vacation and found one below the laundry pile in the corner. Is this a clothes eating moth? Do I have anything to worry about? Found in north Georgia

I found it on a table in my apartment in Córdoba, Argentina. It was roughly 2-3 mm long and was moving in a strange way.
Sorry for the blurry pics, I have shaky hands.

ID Request What can this be? Roach nymph, booklouse?

Post image

Hi!

I found this small critter today next to an old roach gel bait. Haven't seen any clear signs of roaches for two years, only caught one confirmed German roach at that time, and had pest control at my place even then. I'm still keeping traps up that have never caught anything.

The spot in question is a small crevice beneath the kitchen sink, height about 4 mm, so the critter's height is less than a millimeter, even as upright as it looks there. I immediately thought of (and feared) a newly hatched German roach nymph. After some research, I stumbled upon pale booklice that seem similar to me - but I had some confirmed booklice on another bait spot, and they were brown, and even smaller than this.

I know the picture is blurry and it's probably hard to say for certain, but I couldn't get a clearer shot, it's so tiny. Anyone got an idea nevertheless?

(Location is northern Germany.)

I use my coffee maker only on the weekends. It is cleaned every week though. It is only my coffee maker that they are on. Almost exclusively on the top of the maker.

Found these little guys buzzing around in the garden. Need to know if they are a danger to my dog. I can’t tell if they are hoverflies, yellow jackets, or maybe some other wasp? Thanks so much!
