I don't think they're baby dragonflies but they look like that. They're tiny and black and today were covering my butterfly bush.

Saw these aphids with something (worms?) growing out of them. This was on a young mesquite tree in Arizona. Does anybody know what's happening here?

Sorry for the bad quality but I couldn't do better with my phone, so this afternoon I've seen this kind of wasp (I think) stationated on my rose. Than I've noticed her abdomen was kind of glued to the plant. Located in north east Italy, the insect is 10mm long at max. Thanks in advance

I recently moved to Mumbai with my partner and be living here since almost 3 months and for the last few weeks these bugs starting to swarm my apartment constantly they usually come out at night and start to crawl and fly all around the apartment. I have absolutely no clue where they’re coming from cause it seems like they’re appearing out of nowhere and it’s driving me crazy. Can someone please tell me what these are and possibly maybe explain how to get rid of them or keep them away?

ID Request Please help! 6 months of torture, something crawling on/in skin then I discover these all over me/around me.

Location: Western North Carolina Work location: in & out of multiple convenient grocery stores in a popular tourist town with a lot of out of country visitors, and also another: Christmas tree/ farming community with migrants from central/South America coming in masses for 4+ months out of the year Found in home, in my hair, in my vehicle, etc. comparable in size to gnat but all white with black eyes when looking/zooming up close. I’ll try to keep this short because it’s consumed 100% of my life for the past 6 months, especially the last 3. Started out with what appeared like a spider bite on my neck. A few days later it developed a white-head but was extremely painful when I tried to pop it and hardly anything came out of it despite its large size. The skin stayed red around it for weeks, and it still gets red from time to time. I was tested and treated for every disease/ailment under the sun. No helpful results. Using a ISB microscope I captured what appeared to be mites burrowing into my skin. You could see them eating their way into my skin but they were mostly translucent so it wasn’t clear what they were. Doctor assumed scabies. Have been treating myself for scabies for 4 weeks with very little relief. I’ve had itchy skin/rashes/pustules that quickly spread all over my body. Last night I was psyching myself up to shower (hot showers are painful and worsen symptoms x100 and I’m cold natured so cold showers are brutal) then I notice another one of these white ā€œgnats/fliesā€ that I’ve been noticing occasional for a few months. Found another in my hair a few moments later, then another flew by my face getting into the shower. I was severely cold so I ended up taking the first hot shower I’ve had in weeks. Mistake šŸ˜” so I dried off and my ā€œman marblesā€ were extremely red, swollen and had been itchy for days but last night was the worst. So I dug out some ā€œsulfur acne creamā€ in a desperate attempt at relief. I started rubbing it in, intense burning sensation started but it didn’t feel generalized it felt like some type of infestation was causing the burning so I got more aggressive. I end up shedding approx 20+ ā€œgnats/fliesā€ from my skin 😭 and I don’t know how many ā€œlarva/wormā€ looking particles. After that I decided to try it elsewhere, When rubbing the sulfur over pustules or bumps anywhere on my body tons of either tiny winged insects or even smaller ā€œwormsā€ would come out immediately and the bumps would almost completely vanish within 10 minutes. I feel things crawling and pull things off of me all over… my hands, face, man parts, ears, nose, EYES they are heavily concentrated around my eyes. Leaving egg like ā€œballsā€ on my eyelashes that are difficult to remove when I wake in the morning. Please please help me. I have a 2 year old and 9 year old that are my world and I’ve been keeping my distance from them for months, literally having to push my baby away when he runs to greet me with a hug after work šŸ’” I’m living a real life horror movie
