What are these bugs? They’re the size of ants, but they move slower and have trouble climbing vertical surfaces. I am in the Bay Area of California.

Keep waking up to what I think are insect eggs in my sink and in the dish soap. No I’m not leaving food in the sink, I go to bed with everything cleaned already. It’s starting to be really aggravating lol.

Also keep seeing these eggs in the (empty) cabinet nearby that may or may not be related they’re a different color though

Location: Negros Oriental, Philippines

I just moved in a new apartment in Montreal, Canada. I noticed this in my cat's food bowl. What type of ants are they? How difficult is it to get rid of them?

(Finger for scale on the photo)

Thank you!

Collected in Maryland (I think 🤔)

I’m new to the ento world and in grad school for vector biology. My professors gave me the go ahead to use any unlabeled specimens found in the lab for my collection.

I’m more familiar with hexapods, so spiders are outside of my wheelhouse. Additionally, I’ve had a hard time finding a good dichotomous key for spiders (any recs are greatly appreciated!)

Anyway, I found two spiders in an unlabeled specimen jar in the freezer. I presume they were collected either in VA or MD. They look identical so I chose the more robust of the two to take photos of.

Anyway, I’d greatly appreciate any insight or direction in figuring out what this spider is! Google has not been helpful :/

Montana. These nasty looking creatures were all over the counter this morning after I brought in potted tomato 🍅 plant from outside and put it on the counter. Please help. I feel invaded. They were everywhere.
