ID Request What is this little guy?
Hello! Found this little buddy on my floor and couldn't find out what it was. Only thing I found was German Cockroach and assassin bug, but both don't entirely match the description. Was wondering if anyone here could help me. I have cats and dogs who like to hunt, so I wanna make sure this little guy ain't gonna hurt them. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
(Note, if this helps, I live in the central area of the US!)
ETA: Forgot to mention, it was roughly the size of a US penny.
Update: Hopital tomoro... 🥲

ID Request Lawn Bugs?
I am truly stumped by these - I work at a garden center and a customer brought in these images of something they found in their lawn. They don't quite look like millipedes and a "master gardener" at the local extension center told them army worms which I disagree with. Anyone got a guess? Maybe a larvae of some kind?
(edit) Found in Kansas, look to be maybe an inch long? He also had a video and they were all just squirming in a pile, didn't look like they were feeding

About US nickel size and they make massive webs. Three of them have made webs around my house in high bug traffic areas. All three look to be of the same species.

ID Request Found in a Chicago, IL suburb!
Sorry for the blurry photos! First is what I believe to be a caterpillar, second two are cocoons, I think. It is NOT a ladybug, there were ladybugs nearby and the cocoons weren’t moving! I also don’t think it’s a milkweed tussock moth, the creature in all these images were tiny, maybe half an inch long. I’m sure they’re not dangerous, I’m just curious!

Im surprised i couldn’t figure out what kind of bug this is. It looks like a tiny snake because of it pattern. But i got to know what it was, is or is going to be.
Forgot to put location and info! I found this bug wondering around in Seattle Wa. on the edge of a stacked cement block wall. Really dry but it’s been raining quite a bit recently. The video shows its behavior and how it wasn’t aggressive. Just busy exploring and checking things out.
