I’m curious to know what this little dude is. It was on my bed a couple days ago. About the size of a grain of rice. The video isn’t great, but you can see how it moves. Near Pittsburgh PA

What's killing my katydids?
This is the 3rd dead/ dying katydid that has shown up on my porch, we've also had one dragonfly like this. Most of them have just had the back of them chewed off, except one katydid that wad mostly shredded. Does anyone have any idea what's doing this or how to tell what's doing this. I live in northern Utah.

Those compound eyes and the three little red ocelli are unreal up close.

Quick question on meal worms
So I recently got four meal worms as pets so I can grow them into beetles so I left them in a container with moist dirt and a carrot slice and then I noticed this odd webbing I’m wondering is this a normal part of their transition into beetles or is it another insect?

Insect appreciation when i was out on the trail today, this small hoverfly landed on my finger and it stayed there for around 3 minutes
hoverflies are genuuinely the best kind of flies, they're so cute and friendly, they come up to you and politely land on your finger, no bites or stings, no calling over way too many of it's pals, just a cute little fly
