Hello,

Recently this little fella popped up in my front yard. Could anyone help me in identifying it? Is it harmful any?

I recently moved into a new house with a basement and it already had this pump set up on the dehumidifier. It appears it should auto-trigger the pump once it reaches a certain amount of water, but for the past few months it’s stopped doing that and I have to manually trigger the pump every few days.

I’m open to any recommendations on how to fix the problem using the current pump, or any recommendations on replacement pumps. Anything helps, thank you!
