Hi Peter,

1: Hoverfly, Volucella pellucens

2: Ichneumon wasp, maybe Ichneumonidae

3: Try Common Green Capsid, Lygocoris pabulinus based on hairs on the legs...

4: Honey-bee, Apis mellifera

5: As #4

does anyone know if Amaurobius fenestralis are poisonous. I've seen dozens in my house here lately and I have two children one three one two and a half months and I'm concerned. Can't find the answers I'm looking for anywhere else. I stink at this whole online thing.

Hi Trinity
See this page Window spider - Amaurobius fenestralis - Natural England

It seems they are harmless to humans. They are NOT to other spiders though so this may be benefitial.

Pretty sure the bug is an Apolygus species, but can't separate the two species from this view - there's a petal in the way of the vital bit!
