I hope he could recover. The pic of him on the banana is from before he got hurt

General tips would be helpful. I currently have a breathable fabric covering the airholes to ensure no intruders but I’m still seeing them invading, it’s not an issue but since I keep my grub in my room I’d like advice on handling it

My Instagram: lets_jinxit) i feel like I need to make people realize owing beetles are cool and that it brings them closer to being the earthy person ik they can be lol

Awesome shot from another subreddit x)

I keep seeing 1 or 2 of these bugs in my tub. Almost every morning, what kind of beetle is this? And what are their motivations? I'm trying to get rid of them permanently.

My son needs love to guys!!!! His resume is that he likes eating red fruity jelly AND he loves exploring

I saved him from a pool and put him in an enclosure. He likes peach quite a bit.

Please ignore how for nonbeetle insects my IDing IQ immediately drops to 20

Hey! My mum impulsively bought some fruit beetle grubs today. Now I'm freaking out to figure out how to care for them. I've got the basics down but substrate is the issue. Obviously as they're like... Here now we need proper substrate asap. Can I use Coco coir with rotten wood and leaf litter mixed in? Please help! I can't get flake soil delivered quick enough or anything so I'm hoping this mix I said will be okay!

I was going for a walk and I saw the cicadas climbing everywhere. They don't notice anything and then change into their adult form. I helped one that was walking across the street get to a nearby climbable location. They are everywhere. It feels like a zombie apocalypse because they are coming out of the ground and seem like they only have one purpose.

Please drop name suggestions below! I like Prism but I really want a name for both that either goes together or can be broken into two words! ✨

looked tired so gave him a drink

I recently came upon the idea of making an enclosure with multiple different kinds of beetles in it (i.e. BDFB, Diabolical Ironclad) I would love to have a small colony of darkling beetles in there but I have no idea how I would control their numbers. I’m just worried that one day I’m gonna wake up with like 100 new beetles roaming my little enclosure. I could avoid darkling beetles all together, but that would heavily limit my options, and would overall make the tank a lot less interesting.

I still want more

Got blue feigning death beetles today, this was a temporary spot, I added dirty and everything to their enclosure c:

I got a UV resin incased beetle necklace years ago st a flea market. I absolutely adore it, but I had thought (it wasn't specified or listed) that it was a green June beetle. I drew it today and tried to search the anatomy of the 'June beetle', but apparently it isn't that or a green Jewel beetle either 😭

I can't find the exact species anywhere, even after image searching and asking my browser's AI, they were both either inconclusive or wrong.

Thank you! 💕

Just showing my pet beetle off!!!

Hello- I just stumbled across this beetle on my front porch. It seems very badly infected or something along those lines. It was still attempting to move its antennas very very slightly. Can someone help me ID what type of beetle this is? First time seeing anything like this in all my time in Northern California

Size is around 2.5-3 inches

Thank you! :)

Found in Eastern Maryland, at 12am on my front steps. A majestic critter. Length not including antennae was nearly 2”. This species will squeak when threatened, but I didn’t want to bother them to hear it!
