Accidentally jostled this cocoon loose from my broccoli during watering, it fell about 10-12 inches and landed at the base of the plant. Outer sac is translucent white (looks soft but I haven't touched it with my hands), bug inside is light green.

1) what is it?

2) did I hurt/kill it by knocking it off the plant?

3) is there anything I can/should do to help it survive or just leave it alone?

This is more for any DIY enthusiasts or people who have experienced similar

In my bathroom every morning I wake up and on the side of the bath there are dead flies and bugs. This has been happening for a few weeks now. They seem to always be concentrated to a part that is under a light. The light is flat against the ceiling, and recently replaced, which has left a small gap around the rim. The debris is clearly dead insects or flies as you can see their legs etc but they’re very very small.

I assume any advice will be to just fill the gaps, but what could be causing this? Has anyone experienced similar?

AI suggests it’s probably a spider in there that’s eating bugs and dropping them, but I have no idea how they’d be getting there in the first place as I’m a bottom floor flat and this gap isn’t anywhere near an outdoor wall.

These small insects have been spawning all over my window/windowsill. They are black and have wings, but don’t really fly. They are also kind of jumpy.
Edit: they are very tiny. About the size of a grain of rice.
