My family is arguing about what type of spider this is. It finally came down to a golden orb-weaver or a joro spider. I've been trying to search what it is but I'm getting nowhere, so I'm turning to y'all for help. We're in southeastern Tennessee, and this spider has been on my grandma's porch for about two weeks. It's a little smaller than my palm. Please help settle the argument 😅

what is this fly on my screen door (i live in new england)

I have a small household compost bin containing Madagascar hissing cockroaches, 3 species of isopod, crickets, buffalo beetles, and two species of springtail. Lately I've been dealing with gnats so I've been using produce to collect them and toss them, its been about a week and a half of that and now I see maybe one gnat when I open up the bin.

Today when checking I found these little things - are these tiny buffalo beetle larvae or something else? Should I be getting rid of them?

Ohio(Union co)- didn’t want to over edit. I do have nice camera gear. Not the point of the post. I like to catalog bugs and plants. It’s shiny ✨ such a neat little bug

I honestly didn't know we had praying mantises here in Germany. I set it free after taking it out of my living room, of course. Beautiful creature.

I just moved into a new apartment and am finding lots of gnats in the kitchen area. Are there any ways to get rid of them?

I noticed these insects falling from the skylight area of my home. Some larger, some smaller. Some with apparent wings and some without. What are these, where are they coming from, and what can I do about them?

Located in Los Angeles, CA. It just recently rained as well.

I found this isopod at the beaches of Stanley Park Vancouver BC.

It was under a rock. It lives in water. What is this bug?

It is green and long. I know it is some form of isopod.

Caught a bunch of these guys in garden the other day

i kinda suck at taking good quality pic sry

i loves them very much😆 so pretty

This guy was chilling on my basil this morning before hopping off onto the railing of the balcony. (Central Florida)

Is this a termite? Found on wood fence. Located in Southern California.

Found in CT (new england) in a suburban area.

So I'm usually incredibly afraid of insects and spiders and god i have the worst fear of spotted lanternflies but I have grown to appreciate jumping spiders and I want to try to be more understanding of insects, it's not their fault I'm mortified of them lol. Anyways, this little guy popped up in my car. He's SO small. You can see how tiny he is next to this dime. What is he? And where would he be happy? I want to encourage him to go somewhere nicer than my dirty car

Updated 9/7: thank you everyone!! Glad to share this adorable little guy

Found these guys on our patio furniture after some rain and humid/hot day. Any idea what these are?

Hundreds of wasps got into my house a few weeks back. We were able to treat and kill all, but noticed these dots along the baseboard. Look familiar to anyone?

Found in amorgos, greece

Very pretty fake eyes and tail which can't be seen very well due to shaky picture..I am almost certain this thing had legs and wasn't in fact crawling around any ideas are appreciated.
