Creature Identification help, please

Can the bug knowledgable fedi-friends identify this for me please? INaturalist has clearly failed utterly here, as it obviously isn't a Ladybird/bug.

Looks like it's the Dielis pilipes, Hairy-footed Scoliid Wasp!

These bees live in the ground, maybe sorta solitary but in communities? Lots of holes in the dry sandy silt ground where they live. The fly around in patterns around the nests. I thought maybe some sort of cuckoo bee but I'm not sure. They're big, about 25mm long. Some kind of bee, wasp, hornet. More pics in the reply.

Some kind of June beetle? It was on European plum blossom. I went back to collect it later but it was gone.

anybody able to identify these? hundreds of them in one of meats' houseplants. just the one, though. i can't tell if they're insects or arachnids at this size, and this is as good as my phone can do

edit: consensus seems to be aphids! further research suggests they may be root aphids. they do kinda look like soil mites, too, though… meats sprayed em with neem so if it's a problem it prob won't be for long

Some native bees on the flowers. Bombus vagans on a cucumber, a tiny and black bee or wasp on the bee balm, some sort of longhorn bee on rudbeckia, and Bombus vagans again on the hyssop.

A tiny wasp on a rudbeckia petal. Maybe some type of square headed wasp. About 10mm long.

A new bee, maybe a carpenter bee?
