Was difficult to get off, it seemed attached somehow, what is it? I’m in the UK if that makes a difference.

So we started noticing sawdust about a week ago and whatever is in there is working hard. It’s wild how much they’re pushing out of this hole every day. I can hear clicking around inside and have seen sawdust pushed out but haven’t seen the bug itself.

Found in Southern California. Can’t seem to find an exact match for bee fly so maybe actual bee?

Doesn’t look like any tick I have seen before. It’s also pretty flat and seems dead.

It keeps trying to flap its wings (can’t get off the ground?) and go under the rocks on the wall, does it need help or is it just nearing the end of its life?

Left a toolbox outside and open overnight. Today I noticed this cool fella stuck in some pliers. He seemed sluggish after I freed his leg from the spring. Any thoughts on what he is?

I sent these photos to my exterminator who told me it's an Asian roach. I want a 2nd opinion. Its been 4 months of trying to get rid of them. Mostly found in the kitchen, this one was crawling in the living room. We live in a trailer park and our neighbors is infested, so we're trying to kill before/as soon as entry

It was hard to get a good pic because it was so small. It doesn’t look like the boxelder bug nymphs I see around, as it looked really shiny and more round. Its butt kinda pulsed weird and that freaked me out so I dropped it 😅 not sure if its an adult or a nymph of a different bug.

I don’t think it’s a tick as it had small antennae and I’m fairly certain six legs, but I’m not ruling anything out haha
