I found this bug on my bedroom wall this afternoon. I found another last week and decided to take a picture of it and see if anyone knows what it is. It's about 5 or 6 mm long (about 1/4 inch).

I haven't seen them move except to rotate slightly on the spot. Occasionally, it's neck will stick out almost the full body length. The 'head' is black and the body is white.

Any ideas?

I don't know but I think I would get the vaccuum cleaner and remove it.

I save bees and butterflies but kill cockroaches and silverfish.
 
I believe Deja is correct... yours looks like it's pupating on the wall. More than likely will be some moth species.
 
Here in the Front Range of Colorado, we're waiting for the annual Miller Moth migration, expected to be VERY LARGE this year! Kind of like this, or worse:



People new to the area learn very quickly NOT to swat or squash them as they leave permanent brown stains on your wall. Vacuuming them up is the easiest way to get them out of the house! The shop vac lives in the living room for the entire month of June!

I've rarely resorted to the old-fashioned method but it works...put a pan of water out on the kitchen counter or a windowsill and shine a small desk lamp on it overnight. The pan will be full of drowned moths in the morning. Might have to do that this year if the predictions are right!

If anyone is curious to learn more:

Thanks for the responses. After I read them, I couldn't believe that I didn't see the pupae before. Sounds right to me.

Yep something to look forward to every spring :) LOL

They're totally harmless, I just catch them & release them back outside where they belong.

How do so many of them get into your houses? We have them here too but I can't remember an entire flock of them ever being able to infiltrate the house in one go.
