I found them on a leaf of my pepper plant. They are very very small and they came up all together (none separated) when I peeled it off the leaf.
They look like Aphid eggs- They are destructive to your outdoor gardens - Here is more info about them- influentialpoints.com/
These look very similar to white fly eggs or ahpid eggs that are found on plants. I would take some mild detergent mixed with water and spray the leaves of your plants. When you spray this needs to be done in several steps. You spay on Monday then wait until Wed or Thrusday to spray again. Then do it once a week until they are gone and you don't see any more of them.
Does anyone know what type of egg this is? That's my index finger as a size reference. It is flat now, and it feels a little bit like a spider's web.
It looks like a dead silverfish.
Can anyone please tell me what these are/what they will turn into? They were found between the blanket that my son sleeps with, in the bedroom. I'm really creeped out by it and want to know what they are and how to get rid of them.
I've looked on google but can't find any information and can't find any pictures matching to what these look like. Please help.
These look like eggs. They're smaller than a pinhead and I constantly see them on the underside of our umbrella. Sometimes I'll find them on the side of the house after a day or two they turn black, but they start out yellow.
Any idea what they are?
Looks like moth eggs and I believe when they turn black it is empty/finished.
You may want to look at how to get rid of these eggs so they do not cause any damage later and I think the theory is that if you leave them alone the 'residue' will bring more moths each year.
It's really a good idea to send this picture to your county extension agency and let them explain what to do. Be sure to pick your area.
Here are some links you explore while waiting for an answer.

What kind of egg is this? I live in Maine.
Good picture. Butterfly eggs can be interesting to watch over a period of time. Please leave them alone if at all possible.
This was fascinating to me as I live in Florida and have only seen small patches of eggs before.

I found these in a room I was working on and I was curious to know what they are and if they are dangerous and what I should do from here.
These actually could be snake eggs from what I can read about them. A snake egg is an oblong shape and has a soft leathery texture to them.
They look like moth eggs. If the carpet is wool, holes will confirm. Vacuum them up, then toss the bag. That should eliminate the issue.
Found these eggs on a piece of sleeper wood lying in the yard. Anyone know what they might be? When rubbing one a turquoise colour liquid came out.
The eggs are copper metallic in colour.
Get rid of all wood lying in the yard. The egg can be one of many insects. Termites and powderpost beetles do a lot of damage.
They look like either squash bug eggs or stink bug eggs.
Best to scrape them off into a bucket with hot water and a little dish soap to kill them and then dispose of the water away from the house.
Stink bugs are a basically harmless nuisance where I am but squash bugs can kill plants in your garden.
What kind of eggs are these?
If these are orange-ish round eggs with tan fuzz over the top of the cluster, then they are most likely Gypsy Moth Eggs. Areas of the northeast US had a terrible Gypsy Moth season earlier this summer. The larva stage -caterpillars, which hatch from these eggs, climb the trees on which they were laid last summer and eat the daylights out of the leaves. Around my house in south central NY state, they just about stripped the Quaking Aspen (Poplars) of their leaves. While these thousands of caterpillars feasted, on quiet days, all you heard was caterpillar poop falling like a light rain. It stained my truck, my laundry on the line, my deck...everything underneath trees. At my mother's in northern NY state, the tree of choice was Oaks. Around Ithaca, NY it was Maples. One season stresses the trees when this happens, but they will usually recover. Two or more seasons in a row, can kill trees. Defoliating trees like the caterpillars do, keeps the trees from building reserves for next year's growth.
Hi, I've come across this last night in my outhouse which is attached to the back of my house just off a field. I rarely use this room apart from an extra freezer and kids bikes, etc. so I haven't got a clue how long it's been there. I did spot a spider close to the web, but it was nowhere near the black clusters and this morning, it's gone.
Could someone please help me with this so I know if it's just spider eggs, which I'm absolutely terrified of, or if something else so I can get it removed in the correct way.
Please excuse the picture, my phone isn't brilliant and I was trying to stay as far away from it as I could. Thank you in advance.It is difficult to tell from this picture but I would say to spray them with some regular bug spray (if you have it) or some 1/1 water bleach (as it looks like you might have some mold starting lower on the wall(?) or some white vinegar and wait an hour or so before going back to check the site.
Take a small trash can or container and then use some sort of scraper - anything that has a handle -(even a kitchen spatula) - and scrap the bugs/eggs into the container. Empty this into a plastic bag, close it tightly and put in outside trash/garbage container.
You probably should check the rest of this shed/house just in case there are others located in another area.
It would be a good idea to check this area every 2-3 weeks for any kind of infestation and if you see mold you should try to remove it with bleach water.
I've never seen anything like these before. I did some searching online and figured they may be butterfly or moth eggs. Any ideas?
*Some of the eggs are black (dead?) because I left the leaf inside the car for a couple of hours.
Looks like moth eggs but there are so many it's difficult to say which type as some are located at different times in different areas of the country. I do not see any black centers so hopefully, these are not stinkbugs.
I think white flies usually attack plants and this looks like a tree leaf but??
You can always send these pictures to your county extension agency and they can probably answer your question more accurately as they know what type of insects are more prevalent in your area right now.

Just as information you can see how many different moths can be in one state:

Can someone identify these insect eggs? I viewed another forum stating that they (eggs similar to these) were wood mites. I'm doubting that these eggs are from mites because they were laid on the plastic covering swing chains.
We are in a lightly wooded area in the Chesapeake region.
Certain types of moths will lay their eggs on the back of plastic, leaves, or even walls. These look like moth eggs on this piece of plastic. The moth I am thinking of because of the way the eggs are stacked on top of each other is a very small white moth that we sometimes call white flies here in Tahiti. We get a lot of these during our summer months here and they sure love to go on all our tomatoes, cucumber, and green bean plants here. They are a pain and can really destroy the leaves of our plants. I always need to take a spray bottle filled with water and a little dish soap to spray the leaves of the plants to keep them away.
I am looking to find out what type of eggs these are? There's a dead fly next to them, but I don't think those are the eggs from the fly. This is attached to a peach.
Knowing the eggs are on a peach, I would guess they are fruitfly eggs...they certainly are the right size. Wash them off any fruit and the fruit will still be fine to eat.
This is the second time I have seen a pile of particles in this shape and location (underneath the bottom of a closed metal door) in the last 3 months. Are these insect eggs? Location is SE Florida. Thank you.
I just found these eggs on my papaya tree and don't know what they are. Do they look familiar to anybody?
These are not eggs at all. I have 20 trees here and they all have this on them. What happens is this. When one of the leaves dies and falls off the tree there is a white sap that drips. When it rains the sap is dripped onto the fruit skin and forms these white dots. Do not worry about this it happens all the time. They are a bit sticky and when the fruit grows up and you can pick it off the tree it is easy to wash this off. I just leave mine alone and allow it to happen because it is not harmful to the fruit on the tree.
These insect eggs were on my daughter's curtains in southwest Missouri. Any idea what they are?
This is Hypogastrura Nivicola - called Snow Fleas - not actually a flea.
Another name would be Springtails , this insect doesn't fly . They look like little tiny black dots , like pepper . They don't really bother people , they love vegetation , moisture , decay . www.bing.com/
I was doing some painting around the house when I got to the boiler room and noticed a lot of grey balls under the boiler and I was wondering if they were spider eggs or something. I tried going to sites to identify them, but nothing was shown. I really hope someone can tell me what they are as I'm having trouble reaching them to get rid of them.
I had something similar and they were spider eggs.
Best to suck them up with a shop vac and then drown them. I had a friend who vacuumed them up in the vacuum cleaner and the bag broke before she could get it outside and they had hatched and it was a horrible mess. Her kids still talk about that 25 years later.
Scrub the area down with bleach and they should not return.
Hope it helps.
This is the second time I randomly find something like this in my room, the first being almost a month ago. Does anyone know if these are some kind of eggs and if so of what insects? 
Thank you very much!
This is called - Hypogastura Nivicola - formally known as Springtails or Snow Flea ( not actually a flea ) . They look like tiny pepper like dots. This insect loves moisture , decay , and vegetation, creating damage in it's mist. - www.bing.com/
