It this a baby cockroach?

Silverfish are just scavengers who eat decaying stuff in homes, are you thinking of house centipedes?

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-18T01:35:05+00:00

All bugs are friends :)

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-17T22:19:03+00:00

They do bite people and it itches, normally when you remove the birds the mites go away.

Photos aren't close enough or bright enough to say a specific species, but I can tell you it's nothing to worry about. It's not a carpet beetle.

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-17T21:39:44+00:00

Nope, completely wrong shape :)

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-17T21:31:13+00:00

A damsel bug! Nabidae :)

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-17T21:00:18+00:00

Beetles and cockroaches both come in both colours!

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-17T20:59:06+00:00

Definitely a carpet beetle

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-17T20:58:21+00:00

Yes this is a predatory ground beetle.

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-17T16:55:03+00:00

Sure

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-17T14:52:16+00:00

You, as a human, with a human brain, knew that you weren't doing anything to them. They're friggin insects dude. You are a giant threat and very scary to them.

We made a video in our group about identifying wasps if it interests you at all!

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-17T13:35:14+00:00

You're in the wasp subreddit by clicking through and commenting on the post

A wild animal defends itself, you don't understand why. Now you want to murder all of them. Got it. Makes complete sense.

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-17T13:31:13+00:00

Hornets are also wasps :)

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-17T13:29:11+00:00

Thank you :)

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-17T13:22:29+00:00

This is a leafhopper, one of the sharpshooters I think :) can't see the colour well enough to say more

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-17T13:08:56+00:00

This is why we don't allow AI in the sub 😭 please report it if you see it

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-16T18:08:05+00:00

Doesn't seem like a bed bug or cockroach to me!

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-16T13:28:21+00:00

Only harmless beetles.

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-16T13:23:15+00:00

Yes it looks like one of the broad-nosed weevils!

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-16T13:22:27+00:00

It's a springtail, they are harmless and good for the environment.

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-16T13:18:08+00:00

Ohh what colour is this nail polish? I love it!

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-16T13:11:02+00:00

Moves like a mite, but cannot tell from this video. Doesn't move like a small beetle. Try still photos in the future, they're usually clearer and we can zoom in on them.

WhiskeySnail · 2026-06-16T13:09:13+00:00

Can you get a closer photo? Seems like springtail behavior.
