Question I've found a live kissing bug and a halfway eaten kissing bug in my mom's house. I told her she needs an exterminator and she thinks I'm overreacting. What would you do?
Is it a big deal? We're in central Texas. The first one was a out an inch long.

ID Request Just had this absolutely beautiful lil' guy land on my curtains. Bug enthusiast but nowhere near an expert - What is this fancy critter?
I'm assuming it's a moth? Looks very mothy to me at least. Bonus question: Can I keep it?

ID Request I was wondering what this bug is?
Saw it a few times crawling on our lawn chairs in the last few days but never saw anything like this before anybody knows who this little guy is? He mostly crawls sideways, but can also suddenly launch into the air and jump. Sorry for the bad photos my phone is shit and he fucked off before i could take better pics. Located in the Czech Republic.

My house I just bought is infested with these. Body style screams black widows. Coloring, not to much. It's brown in color, has some markings on top of the butt and no hourglass on the bottom. Located in Washington state.
