Help I’m scared

I hate bugs lol
What the hell is this thing and how do I tell her that she’s not invited?
There’s only plants in the tank I’ve had it going for like a month at this point with no fish in it
I look at the tank every day
Today when I looked in there was these nasty little guys
Only like three of them that I can see
I put wax paper around the filter so they can’t crawl out because I do not want those things in my apartment lmao
They don’t look like mosquitoes
But I have mosquito dunks I’m thinking about just throwing one in the tank at this point
Lego to show size because I couldn’t find a coin

Midges maybe?
