These are all over my bed!

These are all over my bed!

Sorry for the extremely small picture but i have to know what are these! We started noticing them a few days ago and at first paid no mind as we live in an apartment building that is closed to a lake and frequently have dragonflies, beetles and other insects.

they are no bigger then the size of a rice grain and upon inspecting saw one spread its wings but did not fly or couldn’t? I assume these are small young beetles but im unsure, if anyone has any info on them would be much appreciated!

What are these bugs?

I came home from work and my walkway next to my house was covered in these little bugs. I am hoping they are not termites.
I am in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

Insect found in Protein Powder

Opened a protein shake powder (no sugar) and found this unwelcome guest, size about 0.5 cm. The container is made of plastic with a tight-fitting screw top lid.

We didn't have this for long, and we can't be certain if this insect was contained already (as eggs or adult) or if the powder was somehow contaminated after I opened it.

Nothing else in the house has or shows any insects, so we assume it came already in the tub.

Can anyone identify this lil guy?

The product was produced in America, this was filmed in Germany. Unfortunately, I am only able to upload still images.

What is this massive cryptid

Heard something making noises outside my door last night and opened it to this behe-moth ( buh dum tsss ). I’m in north Arkansas if that helps get an ID on it! It was about the size of my hand. Absolutely horrifying critter, I went ahead and closed the door softly after getting a few quick pictures.

EDIT: I think I figured it out!!! Few comments said Sphinx moth, I think it’s an Elm Sphinx!

No idea

Not the greatest picture imo but Ive never seen anything like this. It was a fairly big bug I would say while I was at work today. I live in NW Ohio . Any ideas?

I have found quite a few of this bug in my room (all dead) and I am a seamstress who works from my room so I am worried they may be harmful to fabric… (Queens, NY)

Found in the bathroom. Long Island, NY

Sorry, I know the pics are a bit blurry. It was about the size of an adult fingernail tip.
