Arthropods

Centipedes can be found in a wide variety of environments. Some Millipedes have piercing mouth parts that allow them to feed on plant juices.

Ants

Ants feed on a variety of foods, including other insects and sweets.

Beetles

Beetles feed on a diverse range of dried foods and spices, as well as hair, leather, books, and museum specimens. They can bore into furniture, and in some cases tin foil or sheets of lead.

Cockroaches

When they invade a kitchen, it is not uncommon to see two or three queens foraging along with the workers.

Earwigs

Typical earwigs have characteristic cerci, a pair of forceps-like pincers on their abdomen, and membranous wings folded underneath short forewings, hence the literal translation of the scientific name for order “skin wings”.

Hexapods

Collembolans are omnivorous, free-living organisms that prefer moist conditions. They do not directly engage in the decomposition of organic matter, but, rather, can indirectly through the fragmentation of organic matter and the control of soil microbial communities.

Marsupials

Opossums are small to medium-sized marsupials, with the largest just exceeding the size of a large house cat, and the smallest the size of a mouse.

Mammals

The common raccoon, North American raccoon, northern raccoon and colloquially as coon, is a medium-sized mammal native to North America

Mosquito

The mosquito has become a significant pest in many communities because it closely associates with humans, rather than living in wetlands, and typically flies and feeds in the daytime in addition to at dusk and dawn.

Rodents

Rodents are considered omnivores and eat a wide range of foods, including seeds, fruit, stems, leaves, fungi, and a variety of invertebrates and vertebrates.

Scorpion

Scorpions are opportunistic predators of small arthropods, although the larger kinds have been known to kill small lizards and mice.

Silverfish

Silverfish consume matter that contains polysaccharides, such as starches and dextrin in adhesives. These include book bindings, carpet, clothing, coffee, dandruff, glue, hair, some paints, paper, photos, plaster, and sugar.

Spiders

Some spiders can tolerate up to six months of extreme drought and scarcity or absence of food.
