Black bodied snail slithering upwards on the side of my house. It was about 90 degree dry weather so it’s surprising to see a snail outside! Please let me know what this could be!

I found this moth (?) caterpillar in my room...idk. Anyway it’s too small for me to identify. I would just like to know if it would be a detriment to a vegetable garden?

Found this bug scurrying in some mulch. Looks like a moth without wings. I wonder if it’s wings were torn off or if it’s genetics malfunctioned during metamorphosis...?

Found these two bugs in the parking lot of my local park. They look like they're mating. They were attached by their lower abdomen as they walked towards some dry leaves. They look like red shoulder beetles, but they have more red underneath tbeir black wings which leaves me to think they're not sexually mature?

Abejorro Carpintero de Sonora (Xylocopa sonorina)Observ.
dianasmaguiDescripción
These little guys have carved up and made a nest inside an old log in my front yard. The females move extremely quick, so it's hard to get a clear picture of them. They seem unbothered by my presence.
To clarify: I did not remove the bee I'm holding on my finger. I actually almost stepped on him so I picked him up and moved him away from foot traffic.

This insect buzzed around my front yard with a black carpenter bee. They both snuck inside a hole on a piece of dead bark. Originally there were 2 males but I saw one fly off.

Cantueso (Lavandula stoechas)Observ.
dianasmaguiDescripción
A small swarm of Western/European Honey bees in a Top Lavender bush. To keep up social distancing protocol, my local Trader Joes had customers stand in line, 6 ft apart and wait their turn to go in. Though the line was incredible, I knew it was necessary and it allowed me some time to take a close observation of the plants and animals around me. This plant looked a like lavender but it had a slightly different scent.
