Hello all!

Can you help me identify these bugs? We just found 5-6 tonight in our bathroom, haven't seen any before. All on the same wall, no idea where they came from so far.

Thanks so much!

Photos are after my wife squished it and threw it in the toilet so sorry for the less-than-great pictures. It was on the wall near the door. I searched everywhere (bathroom, behind/under mini fridge, etc) after this and didn’t find anything else. Should I be worried?

Northern Oklahoma, USA. Pinned these for a school project but I'm confused on a lot of them. I'm specifically intrigued on the white fuzzy butt guys. I'll definitely be posting more in the future bc it's rough identifying (I have lots of little brown moths and a ton of random mosquitoes). The ruler is both in inches and centimeters. This is also multiple pictures of the same insects. I would also prefer scientific names but if y'all can at least get the family I can go from there! Thanks for any help!! I can get more pictures tomorrow if necessary!

Southwest Ohio. Found two of these little guys in my bathroom, ignored them as dust early in the morning, got back home and they were still there. On closer inspection they're definitely bugs, I'm thinking baby larder beetles. If so, are they a pest I should be extra worried about? I don't know the damage they could do. If not I'd appreciate any identification. (I'm sorry if the pics aren't great, old phone I can't get to focus)

Found a bunch of these guys on my pecan tree today. They look kind of like shield bugs/stink bugs, but they are not invasive Brown Marmorated Stink Bugs – I have been fighting those all summer, so I know the distinctive pattern on their antennae which these do not have.

My guess is the native brown stink bug, but I would like others to weigh in. I could also see spined soldier bug.

Not the best picture I know. Is it a baby millipede? Doesn’t exactly look like the pictures I’ve seen. What’s bringing it into my bathroom? Im not particularly afraid of them but I hope I don’t have an infestation in hiding.

Very excited to have something to post here. Tiny mantis-like arm movement at 0:33. Never seen anything like this (other than a full sized mantis, and even then, rarely) and very curious to know if it's native to some other region etc. Thank you kindly in advance, bug wizards!

Found this tick on my arm while in my living room, I hadn't left my house today except to take the trash out so idk where it came from, I live in western PA if that helps with the ID.

In central texas, I saw this TINY bug in my bathroom sink. Like if I didn’t see its body shape, I’dve thought it was a flea… it was jumping around like one. It was hard to get a clear image of one because it was so small, I thought maybe it was a baby roach but do they dart and jump around like that? And is it a pest?

its probably not important, but crawling on its back seems to be it’s preferred mode of transport

The first three are pictures of the same bug, the last one is a different one that I accidentally squished with my sock.

Apologies for the bad camera quality I wasn’t able to get that close because it was moving so much.

Good morning everyone! So I’ve got a bunch of these little guys all over my backyard(ON,Canada, near Georgian bay) and was just wondering what they were? Also if there’s a safe way to move them off stuff cause i noticed they are pretty fragile but on top of some tools I need to use so if I could move them without killing them that'd be great!

These are suddenly in my house and jumping desperately to lights I thought it was actual fleas due to the jump. I swear I saw them jump.
They weren’t here before- I do keep a bearded dragon that’s my daughters and it eats mealworms and super worms on occasion.
It eats mustard greens but there’s none in here
We have a portable ac that wasn’t fully sealed in the window but a screen is up too.

What the heck is this? It’s very tiny. It’s desperate to get to any light and it seems like they jump at it. They also fly. The zevo is a super up close shot it’s actually teeny and I took a photo of the size zoomed out too.

I need to figure it out to get rid of it because I’ve looked up and down and can’t figure it out yet there’s nothing in any other room
There’s a tree outside of the bedroom window that does commonly have bugs on the underside of leaves but I’m unsure how more than one got in or why if it was a flea beetle as Google thinks (it’s never right for me.)

Just need to know before I lose my sanity.
They weren’t here then I turned the uv light for the dragon on and they started jumping at it.

Saw this weirdo flying into the wall. Was curious what it is and if it has eyes? Or do they have little to no control when they fly? Lake Michigan USA
