For moths, my faves are carpet moths! They're very cute, even if they're inconvenient for me since I work with textiles ;;

Close though are pretty much any sphinx moth. There's a lot of variety in them, and all of them are very neat looking.

For wasps I won't include pics because genuinely like I think they're all neat but I know people beef with them. I'm omitting my fave mantidfly as well because it looks very wasp-esque as well! It's called the brown wasp mantidfly.

Similarly I know people beef with spiders and stuff too, so I won't post pics, but I LOVE whip scorpions, the california black tarantula, and black widows! We have a lot of black widows around here, especially at the store my husband works at, and I try to relocate them away from where people will hurt them whenever I can. Especially if I find a baby just hanging around.

But BLUE DEATH FEIGNING BEETLES are a dream pet tbh, but I just don't think I have the space and time to take proper care of anything more than just my cat right now, at least not in the way that I'd want to. I know they're just beetles, but still I'm like I wanna spoil them.

For cicadas it's kind of funny in a grim way, because for the longest time I was like "I love the green ones with the white stomachs" and I was trying to find out what species that was, and went down a rabbit hole where I like, found that species, but also found out about this other grim situation that some species run into, with this parasitic fungus that turns them into, quote, "hypersexual zombies", which is the scariest fucking thing wikipedia could tell me. The fungus produces psilocybin so they just trip balls and seek out as much sex as possible and then die, which is neat of them to do, and slowly the fungus just completely replaces their abdomen?

Anyway, the cicada species I actually love is the dog-day cicada which has a naturally white underbelly and is quite cute.
