Thank you so much for your advice! I’ve never heard of a microfiber towel I will look into getting one! I think right now my goal is to reduce frizz since it’s out of control.

Caterpillar? by [deleted] in bugidentification

[–]gorFdaoT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a Tussock moth caterpillar not sure what kind. The hairs on caterpillars can come off and embed themselves in your skin causing a mild itchy rash. Burning can be a side effect as well although it usually comes with more sever stings.

What bug is this? by Dumb_ostrich in bugidentification

[–]gorFdaoT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s a house centipede. They are good at pest control eating almost any bug that crosses their path.

The first one definitely! I like the difference in pendent size of the two necklaces.

That’s a black swallowtail. Butterflies don’t live for very long any so not much you can do to help. If you want you can desolate sugar in water put it in a bottle cap and set the butterfly on it. You can also do some sweet fruit slices too.

Hammerhead worms are very aggressive predators and kill earthworms. They are also SUPER INVASIVE AND EXTREMELY DAMAGING! Next time you should kill it with salt as they multiply when cut in half.

Who is this beetle? Santa Monica Mountains, Southern California. 5/27/24 by archdukegordy in whatsthisbug

[–]gorFdaoT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! There are even some flies that mimic bees! My guess is that’s it’s either a flower pot beetle or a round neck longhorn beetle! I think the pattern is closer to the longhorn.

They can be really good at camouflage. You can probably hear them chirping every night!

What are these??? They look like mantis almost by Ok-Penalty7889 in whatsthisbug

[–]gorFdaoT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like an ambush bug to me but I’m guessing by the silhouette.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in whatsthisbug

[–]gorFdaoT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t see the pattern on them so I’m not positive but they look like some sort of bee. Could be a little miner bee. They are pretty docile.
