Cecidomyiidae are very fragile small insects usually only 2–3 mm (0.079–0.118 in) in length; many are less than 1 mm (0.039 in) long. They are characterised by hairy wings, unusual in the order Diptera , and have long antennae .
How to Identify Them: Per the expert, house centipedes are yellowish-brown in color with three dark gray stripes on their back and long, flattened bodies with prominent antennae and 15 pairs of ...
Fairyflies are very tiny insects, like most chalcidoid wasps, mostly ranging from 0.5 to 1.0 mm (0.020 to 0.039 in) long. They include the world's smallest known insect , with a body length of only 0.139 mm (0.0055 in), and the smallest known flying insect , only 0.15 mm (0.0059 in) long.
The antennae are approximately 2 cm long. Head close-up magnified. House centipedes feed on spiders, bed bugs, termites, cockroaches, silverfish, ants, and other household arthropods. They administer venom through forcipules. These are not part of their mandibles, so strictly speaking they sting rather than bite.

These bugs are brown-gray in color and leggy with long antennae. Many stink bug species feed on plants, while others are predators of other bugs. They are true bugs, meaning they have sucking ...
They are small insects with a body that is up to 6.5 mm (0.26 in) long and 3 mm (0.12 in) broad, [1] and a leg span up to at least 15 mm (0.59 in). [2] They lack wings, have long antennae, short front legs used for catching prey (and, in the male, for holding the female during mating), long middle legs used for propulsion, and somewhat shorter ...
All aphids have very small eyes, sucking mouthparts in the form of a relatively long, segmented rostrum, and fairly long antennae. These insects are so small (a few millimeters in length), that winds can transport them for fairly long distances. They are often green, but might be red or brown, as well. They move quite slowly and cannot jump or hop.
