If you wanted to define it, you didn't have to split it.

Length ~4 mm. Several months are quite common throughout the apartment. Some kind of weevil? But, judging by the description, most of the common ones eat cereals, flour, etc. Carefully checked all the food products: everything is securely packed, no traces of insects. What kind of species, how to destroy?

Good time of day. Can you tell me who these guys are?
During the day, there were three such guests, or tenants (the second one would not be desirable at all)

Serica brunnea Crunch red

Good time of day. Can you tell me if any particular type of steatode has light spots on its abdomen? The location is Volgograd.
All over the house here and there I come across small spiders, judging by Googling these are steatodes, but I can't understand what exactly, the color is from light brown to dark, almost black and brown, there are no red or orange spots or stripes on the top and / or bottom, as well I don't see a light stripe along the body on the abdomen.
Most of them show light, small, rounded dots, but sometimes they come across with a light belly and dark dots.
Cocoons sometimes come across several at once, the cocoons themselves are usually round and slightly transparent, you can see a yellow cluster inside in the area of the center, the size of large ones is about a centimeter.
The web is visible in the light, glistens, but at first glance it is woven chaotically, I can't say anything concrete about the strength, there is nothing to compare it with.
If an insect gets caught in the web, when it becomes unnecessary, it is lowered down, but not always.
The body size of the largest spiders is about a centimeter. The whole can be a centimeter and a half or two.
I didn't pay much attention to them before, but now I run into them more and more often, I crushed one of them while I was sleeping at night. Judging by Googling, he might have bitten me at that moment, but I don't feel anything like that. Unfortunately, I can't attach a photo because I don't have access to something with focus, those photos that turn out to be very vague and I don't see any sense in them.

Unfortunately, you can't tell by the description.

Steatoda triangulosa look, 95% of all people in their homes see them, although usually they also live in the houses of the Steatoda grossa, but it is secretive and almost does not come across. Light abdomen and dark dots are the same triangulosa, they have this happen

Cocoon steatoda triangulosa at first glance is similar, of course, if you trust Google pictures, but I'm confused that in most of the pictures you can easily see the picture. And I can't do it so easily, I try to look both with glasses and with a magnifying glass, but I can't see a repeating pattern that would directly see a triangle or a series of small triangles on one line/a quadrilateral/a strip on the side/a thin crescent on the side of the cephalothorax.
Is the cocoon a reliable confirmation, or is it similar to many others? To clarify, how often does such a cocoon occur in spiders in general? Maybe this is a feature of tenet boxes? Is it similar in allmost steatodes? Or is it characteristic of steatoda triangulosa?

I don't know about the cocoons, I can't say anything. And trianguleses are different
In general, you have at least two ways-to accept that this is a triangulesis, or take a good picture of your spiders and post them in the local topic to identify spiders, or better yet, immediately go to the site by link )

https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?pl...&taxon_id=81579

Interesting site, thanks for the information.

Again Pan Hierophis purposefully takes people away from Molbiol Last time he took them to Ukroblin, now to Yynaturalizd. And then, when the local administration touches his easily wounded soul, where will it go? Or resentment of a white sahib from Zaluzhye - an unacceptable luxury for a South-Karain Negro and love with Ynutalizd forever?

Old, do not listen to this Russophobe, upload the image to the photo hosting service, and insert the link to the graphic file in the [img][/img] tags in this topic. In houses there is not only triangulosa and gross. And the latter is quite a catch on the eye, if they are observant.

Tell me, what kind of creatures are these? 1-2 mm carcass, jump, eat dried beetles and butterflies worse than flour beetles! Together with the wings, they devour, those at least only ate the carcass from the inside...

Something chalcidoid. You are very much mistaken about devouring dry insects, but it is possible that they devour those who do this.

Thanks, apparently beetles are being hunted.

In a good way, you should look at the list of known parasitoids of these beetles, maybe you will find among them.

Hello, can you tell me what it can be, a large number of these small insects are not more than 7 mm. Mostly on walls, curtains, and windows.

Help me find out what kind of insect it is.
The body is not more than 2 mm. The apartment is renovated. They appeared not so long ago... No food, no people. What they eat is not clear.

They crawl on the wallpaper.

Who are they and what to do with them?
Thank you in advance.

Shitty photos, but the outline looks like a Surinamese flour eater.

Members of the Lathridiidae family feed on mold. If there were no leaks in the apartment, there is no high humidity, the reason should be found in wet building materials - often wet plywood, drywall, etc. are sewn into the walls. Or in the floors for example. Usually they themselves disappear after a while, but if you have wooden floors after a good flood, they can live for years and increase their numbers. In this case, it is necessary to break everything again, treat the places of mold development with fungicides and after drying, re-repair. There is no other way. Insecticide treatment will be a temporary success, as the larval growth site will not be available for treatment.

Yes, there was a lot of mold.
All removed during the repair. The last hearth was in the kitchen, under the linoleum floor.

The mold was removed from there, filled with a mold remover, washed and dried.

Until they disappeared: there were more of them on the walls...

Thanks for the reply.

And what are they dangerous for?

Nothing. But if there are more of them, then the mold still remains, most likely in hidden places.

OK, thanks.

It seems to have cleaned up everything. I must have stirred up their nest for the last time.

I'll see if I can fill up everything with Hector.

Good afternoon.
Please help me understand the definition of the insect species.
The size is very small, the magnification in the photo is strong.
They appeared in the bedroom on the walls, most of all by the bed. The living room also has some on the walls. In the bathroom itself, a couple are also sitting. They called a "specialist", but he didn't really say anything. Only it's definitely not cockroaches.
There is a small child in the house, I think to call or not disinsection. Who could it possibly be?!
I will be very grateful for any information.

Thank you in advance.

Hay eaters.

Where do they come from, please tell me? Books, cereals were examined. I don't have them there.

How to get rid of them? Do I need to call the pest control service?

Thank you very much!!!

It was found in water and resembles a pupa. Who could it be? It doesn't move, so it's dead?
Is it a water animal or a "land animal" and can it be revived or bred? Are there any similar larvae that hatch underwater?Should I throw it in the water or will it kill it? Will putting a land pupa in the water kill it? (I suppose so) What about putting it in some kind of humid environment as a compromise? Is it useless to try to deduce it?
It's quite hard to the touch, like a woodlouse, but I don't see any whiskers.

I admit the questions may seem naive, but if it can be animated or inferred, then I should animate it or infer it. Thank you.

They feed on small litter and mold, if they are not present in cereals and books, then they do not harm. Try to perform a high-quality wet cleaning with a disinfectant. In your case, the damage to your health from carrying out disinsection treatment will exceed the harm from their contemplation by you.

Pupari of some fly. If you want to remove it, try placing it in a wet place.

They write that they do not tolerate high humidity and it should be 20-40 %, which is difficult to ensure, because I do not particularly imagine what such humidity looks like. Can I find a suitable environment for it?
Will it be enough just to take gray (or yellow sand), moisten it a little, just to a state of light humidity, so that when pressed, the moisture remains slightly on the finger, lower the pupari there without a prikop and cover it with a cloth or film so that the water does not evaporate? Should I add more water and how sensitive is it to drying out?
Now it is in the slightly moistened soil of a flower pot that is covered with a film on top. I hope this is normal.
Can I wash it before moving it? I'm afraid I've smeared her in mud and the mud has plugged her spiracles, so she'll suffocate. No harm done?" Or don't you need to bother with it?

I found caterpillars and cocoons on the cabbage, the caterpillars are motionless, fixed with a web, small cocoons under them, who is so wrong with them?

I will assume that this is Fannia, so it is unlikely that the result of the withdrawal will greatly inspire you. It is not necessary to wash them, they are not smeared in such a way. I think if it is alive, then just putting it in a dark place on wet sand will be enough.

braconid, type Apanteles

Help please. Who is it? It looks like a grasshopper, but it's a strange one. I've never seen one like it in the garden before.

I pulled it out on a concrete car parking lot, a vegetable garden nearby. You can't see it in the grass at all, it looks like a leaf.

Please tell me who it is. Thank you.

The point is different. Reread the name of the forum section.

if you post a post in the topic "Defining erect wings", also pay attention to the words written in dark red font, which are automatically added to each post. Without meeting these requirements, the definition is usually impossible.

Hello! I've been suffering for a week now. I can't get rid of these little flying beetles.
How to get rid of it? And who are they anyway?
Thank you all in advance.
