| | | Mystery Insect ID?
Does anyone know what this little critter might be? We found it in our flat today. It's minute. Body appx 2mm long, legs double or a bit more. We have a couple of tarantulas and so have crickets. Initially wondered if it was a baby cricket but not so sure now.
Any ideas? |

Hi and welcome to WAB! It looks very like a cricket nymph (baby) to me, perhaps you could breed your own to feed those tarantulas!

It's an aphid of some sort, not yet adult and therefore hard to say what species |

Personally I find it hard to say what species an aphid is when it is adult!  |
