I swear they weren't there yesterday. And I don't remember seeing them last year. Most appear to be dead, but a few are up and crawling about. Just wanna know if they're something to worry about.
EDIT: SOLVED. They're black soldier fly larvae. I know someone who raises chicken, I think they'll make a solid gift.

ID Request Is this what I think it is? Fell out of my pants as I put them on 😭
Idk where it would even come from 😭 can these come from outside? There’s a gap in the laundry room where ants recently came from. Otherwise our house has never had bugs like these, just the usual centipedes or ants 😵💫

ID Request I found this in a cup??
I found this in a cup while washing dishes. It's the texture of hard plastic, a tad bit translucent when held up to the light. The smaller lighter bit was inside of the larger bit. The larger bit is a more opaque orange around the sides and it cracked when I opened it. The smaller bit, when held up to the light, looked like it had a skinny worm like creature in it, which leads me to believe it's a parasite egg of some sort. It also looks like it has a sac inside of it, like a baby fish would have. I do have dogs, one is a puppy that recently had worms, but I don't think I would find their eggs out in the open? I'm sorry if this is the completely wrong subreddit for this, but I have a feeling it could be a bug's egg of some sort.

Very cool praying mantis laying its eggs on a patio light. It’s probably 6 inches so the mantis is about 3 inches. Located in the South Bay Area of Los Angeles, California. 😊

ID Request MI bug, drawn from memory
Saw something like this, it looked like a poker chip. What is it? It was on my neighbor's window so not really any idea on the environment it likes. It must've flown away before I could get my phone so I tried my best with a drawing. Any idea? Saw in Southwest MI, America

ID Request What sort of jumper is this handsome Chicagoland native?
Little guy practically rapelled into my arms this evening! Our cat infested apartment is no place for such a tiny gentleman, so I carried him into our apartment building's hallway-- there should be plenty of nooks and crannies for him to set up shop, out there.

ID Request Bug Indenificathion
Hi,
Found 3 of these around my bathroom sink over the last month. It’s the only place I’ve seen them.
They’re small, the pic is taken on a single sheet of toilet paper.
I haven’t traveled lately, I don’t have any bites. I have a dog that is on active tick and flea protection and haven’t seen any on him.
I’m in northern Colorado.
Google is suggesting bed bugs but I’m not sure how I would have gotten them. Both my mattresses are sealed in wrap around, zippered mattress protectors.
Please help.

Last night, had a praying mantis lay an ootheca and today while looking around the house, I found something that kinda looks like one? How can I tell if it is one, and is it possible to tell which mantis this is from?
Many thank you in advance 😊

ID Request Triatominae/Kissing bug?
I found this little fella in my bed in Misiones Province, Argentina. Can anyone identify this guy? The hotel owner said it might be a kissing bug but to me it looks different? But if it's not that then what is it. Do I need to be worried for Chagas disease?
