In nature, American cockroaches are decomposers that feed on decaying organic material. Here is an adult female (note the egg case) and a nymph feeding on a rat carcass. For more information: www.nysipm.cornell.edu/whats_bugging_you/cockroaches/defa...
While conducting an inspection to identify the source of a cockroach infestation, several areas conducive to cockroaches were identified. While this site provides some harborage for cockroaches, it is suspected that the insects were actually living ABOVE this area where droppings were found. When conducting an inspection, always remember to look up, down and all around. For more information on cockroaches: www.nysipm.cornell.edu/whats_bugging_you/cockroaches/defa...
Dark-eyed fruit flies can develop in moist areas with decaying food particles, like the gap around a sink. Once development is complete, larvae crawl away to find a dry place to pupate.
I'd like to introduce the Black-Tailed Red Sheetweaver, or Florinda coccinea! It is the creatively named sole member of the genus Florinda, and a very common critter in the lush lawns of my region.
If any spider I've ever shown screams "DON'T TOUCH!", it's surely this sheetweaver. The saturated scarlet coloration is only broken by ebony black pedipalps and spinnerets, creating a cautionary tale from afar! Ironically enough though, these small spiders are entirely unequipped to attack any animals our size, and are functionally harmless to humans. To bugs, though...
These interesting arachnids are known for their intricate sheetweb, constructed under a complimentary cast of fly lines! The upper layer of silk knocks flying foes into the web, where they are promptly overcome by the red reaper below.
Life in my region would be waaaay different if humans were under an inch, that's for sure.
This shot was captured at 1:1.25 by my Vivitar (Komine) 90mm f2.8 Macro. This photo is uncropped. This frightening female is around 4mm long!

The Green Bee Eater, often referred to as Little Green Bee Eater (Merops orientalis) was sitting on a twig checking its perimeter for bees and other flying insects that can be hunted. Once it locates its quarry, it rushes to the spot with a classical flight supported by its sleek wings and fan-like tail to capture its prey.
If the insect is too tiny, it would swallow whole, but it would generally hit the insect against the perch, as shown by the swaying head after it lands, to ensure that the insect is dead before swallowing the protein-rich meal.
The good thing about these birds are that they pick up a particular perch and return to the same spot for eating. They are very active during late mornings and early evenings, while the nesting birds with chicks to feed would not mind having a few mid-day meals as well.
Please watch the video in HD mode and enjoy the sounds of the birds in the vicinity.
These droppings are the same size and shape as rodent droppings, but they are from cockroaches! Ridges or grooves on droppings distinguish them as from the American Cockroach. The larger brown object in the picture is a cockroach egg case or ootheca. For more information: www.nysipm.cornell.edu/whats_bugging_you/cockroaches/defa...
(Harmonia axyridis) Asian Lady Beetles were introduced to the United States as biological control agents. They are voracious in their appetite for agricultural pests (aphids, scales), and can be differentiated from other lady beetles by the white markings on the side of their pronotum bordering a dark M-shape from above (W-shape here). The number of spots and color (mustard-yellow to reddish-orange) is variable for this species. For more information: www.nysipm.cornell.edu/whats_bugging_you/occ_invaders/def...
Paper nesting wasps, including yellowjackets, paper wasps and hornets, collect paper fibers from dead wood to make their nest cartons. This cedar wood structure is the perfect substrate for this yellowjacket to use! Resulting damage is aesthetic, but some people might object to this. Finishing wood structures is highly recommended to prevent this type of damage.

Termite alates or swarmers emerge in the spring, usually after a warm, rainy day. Unlike worker and soldier termites that are cream colored, alates are black and have wings. However, wings may drop off and can be found in a pile on the floor. For more information on termites: www.nysipm.cornell.edu/whats_bugging_you/termites/default...
In order to feed the tsetse flies, seibersdorf scientists use a silicone membrane to seperate the flies from the blood that they feed on. Tsetse flies do not feed directly on the blood as they do not recognize it as a food source. The membrane allows the scientists to collect the blood to feed the flies from a slaughter house instead of feeding the flies on live animals. (IAEA Seibersdorf, Austria, January 7, 2005)

Springtails come in many different shapes and sizes. They are all associated with moist environments, and when they are discovered indoors, it is always the result of a problem with standing water, a leak or rotting wood. For some detailed information about Collembola see: www.collembola.org/

White clover may be considered a weed by many lawn purists, but was once a staple in lawn seed mixes, as clover raises the nitrogen level. See www.ccerensselaer.org/Libraries/Hort_Lawn_Fact_Sheets/Whi... for more information.
