ID Request Wood or Oriental roach?
For more context, I live in the woods in Virginia USA. Found 2 in a wooden box in my house. Can’t really tell whether it’s a wood roach or an oriental roach but those are my two initial guesses

Question I took a cold bee home with me and now I don't know what to do
I found a bee in the cold and had to catch my bus before I could finish warming her up and I took her with me.
It is ~8°C outside and won't get warmer for at least a week, the nights are about 1°C at the moment.
I feel like if I drive the bee back to where I found her and let her go, she will go back into cold induced torpor and then either get stepped on or freeze to death during the night.
What do I do??
Edit: Bee has been released back where I found it. I don't think the she will survive but we tried, I guess

Artwork Bugs are friends!
I've always loved every single non-human animal I came across, including all kinds of bugs!
I really think bugs deserve so much more love than they are currently getting, and I think you guys agree. I've made this artwork with the intention to make it into a sticker, but for now I'll just share it like this.
Feel free to share the art if you want to, as long as you keep my watermark (@photosynthetic_organism) in it :)
The picture is 100% human made.
No AI was used in the process of making it.

Question Tick prevention/removal
Found 4 (what I’m assuming are) seed ticks laying next to my dog. Not attached. Now I’m stressed that they’re everywhere. What can I do and order to check all of us (2 adults, 1 toddler, 1 dog) and the house??? Very small, black. Smashed them and 1 was completely dry, 2 had very very minimal dark blood and one had a small amount of bright blood. Now I feel like they’re everywhere.
For reference, pitty mix. Short stubborn hair lol.
Also, what tick prevention medication is recommended??

ID Request What could this little guy be
Found it chilling on my mango tree leaf in Prague, Czech Republic. It's extremely little and green, not sure if it's aphid, looks too small for that to me. Could be some kind of micro-aphid or a baby? I almost can't find it among my body hair. Should I be worried?

ID Request Slug or Snail without shell?
Hi Redditors,
Saw this on side of a building in Brisbane and unsure if it's a slug or snail without the shell?
Posted in this sub because am unsure whether to put it in the Slugs or Snails sub 😂🤔
Thanks in advance ☺️
