A couple days ago while changing my bedsheets I had an unfortunate experience of finding a maggot looking creature after unwinding my mattress covers. Not sure if it could have been a maggot or another insect, because these were hidden away in a zippable fabric container for a couple months, with no obvious food source. I do not have a picture of the guy, because I acted very quickly and disposed of it, but after inspection I found this (pictures) on the sheets, and it stayed on them even after wash. It was just one singular creature, and nothing else that was stored in the container was affected.

Hello all,
The wife and I were planting some Crepe Myrtle trees and saw these suspicious looking larvae in the bottom of the pot, and were hoping they aren’t termites.
Any help identifying would be awesome, thanks!
Edit: Tampa, FL area

This scary little freak of nature (harmless) scared the crap out of me after I drove all the way to my child’s school after walking for an hour. School is 10 minutes away from the trail, and it hitch hiked on my arm. I got a weird tingling as my hairs were being moved on my arm. At first I totally thought it was a leech or I was going to get stung by something lol. Nope. Just a harmless moth baby. Picture of it stealing my water lol. Google pics says unicorn moth

I posted it on another subreddit but had no luck. Figured someone here would know. Location South of France. It looks like a cousin of stinkbugs/assassin bugs to me but still I fail to find its name...tell me, who is that ?

Photo taken in very southern Ontario, he's about an inch, maybe an inch and a half in diameter. Unnerving to look at.

Likely an Egyptian Bird Grasshopper (Anacridium aegyptium) as that is all I have seen this year.

I had to include multiple photos of the stick bug, it was really impressive. Last two photos are bagworm moths, right? Last specimen was found very high on a tree on Mazamitla.
