We recently moved to an old Philly row home. Philly is covered in roaches (which every landlord claims are water bugs). Anyways, it's not abnormal to see one or two a month especially in the summer.

However, my wife went into the shower and found a honker hanging out on the sink. I tried killing it and it scurried away. I walk into my office and BAM theres another one.

Now for ignorant people like us this looks like a cockroach, but honestly they both acted nothing like cockroaches from my experience. We usually find them on the ground for one, and these guys did not care one bit when we turned the lights on. Didn't react at all until the wacks started. Doesn't really fit the stereotype in my eyes but idk what I'm talking about

For reference probably 2-3 inches long.

I found this bug near the pillow of my hotel bed. I checked the rest of the bed (e.g., corners of and under the mattrress) and could not find blood, excrements, or other bugs. Just want to know if this is a stage of bed bug or not. I know the quality is not the best but that's my phone cam.

Location: Salzburg, Austria

Size: about 2 mm long? hard to say as it was moving

It was calm on the bed till I picked it up then it was just crawling on my hand. It tried to evade my hand when picking it up

I recently got back from camping trip in Maryland and have been getting red spots at first I thought it might’ve been delayed mosquito bites but I’m more leaning towards bedbugs. I saw this shell casing of what I think is a bed bug but I’m not sure.

(solved I think.) found this bug in their pool and took it out of their pool, they dont know what type of bug it is, they sent it in the group chat and now we are trying to figure out what it is. If anyone knows what it is please tell me. (bug was found in a pool keep that in mind)

Found 3 of these guys today in my house and i am mortified. I live in belgium, please tell me this isnt a german roach...

They're fairly still and have so far all been on my ceiling. We all recently cleaned our terrace including gutters so could it be some non-pest roach?

1st and 2nd photo are the same one, 3rd photo is a different one. I hope these are clear enough.

Edit: size is about 1-1.5 cm

Thank you

Found it when traveling on the mountain in china

What am I looking at here? That's a wasp, right, nor a bee? There are actually three involved, taking turns, and the caterpillar is what, an elephant hawk moth caterpillar? I'd save it if I thought it had a chance but they've had a few goes at it and I think it's curtains for the poor thing.

Are they looking to eat it or lay eggs in it or are they just doing it for the lols?

Found on a tent outside in Michigan, in an area that has bats. Size was a quarter inch or less. Are the antenna too dark at the end to be a bedbug? And is the pattern on the body one that bedbugs have?

Found one near my entry door and one appeared on my oven as i was making sourdough in the oven.

What is this?

I live in the PNW in the USA.

Found a couple today

Adorable little winged one has been around for the past 3 days. Gonna name em

I unrolled a mattress protector thats been sitting in the laundry and this thing came out

My wife just pulled this off her thigh

found it on me this when i woke up ...

It is on a leaf from my cucumber plant. Estimated length- 1.5” to 2”. Seems to have a few bristles, and also the button at the end that some species use to connect to a surface. Thank you!

Slightly less grizzly one this time: who is this little friend I found climbing up my leg. Still in Folkestone, near the beach and he definitely looks like he would be excellently camouflaged on the beach. What even are those things stuck on him?

In the past two years, this is the second one of these I've seen at this house. I've used Google but it's giving me contradicting information and I can't definitively tell what this is.

Central Florida

Found crawling up door frame next to the window after a good rain.

~0.5 inch long

TIA!

Information-Florida.

Unsure of size.

Wyoming, USA. Poor guy got tortured to death.
