Its possible they have emerged from firewood you have inside or wooden furniture. Check for saw dust and small holes.

Those are antennae or feelers not at all a proboscis. It has mandibles for chewing instead. These beasties feed upon trees, yes. And are often refered to as timbermen or longicorn beetles (Cerambycidae). I cannot identify it further as you failed to include your location. Their larvae feed on timber. However, its unlikely that healthy trees be targeted. Rather sick or injured trees are favoured.

Its a beetle. Its a member of the Melolonthidae It might be what is often refered to as June bug. Not at all a bug (Hemiptera) though its just a common name.

This is lurking on our house. Sometimes on our bed. Getting around 3 to 5 of them a day. Im from Philippines. If you have a wooden house. That's not good cos they eat wood. Its a termite also called whiteants sometimes.

Its likely a butterfly pupa. No cocoon. These are made of silk. Seems you're describing caterpillar and pupa or chrysalis. I look forward to the pictures. Most likely someone can identify it here.

Well, you can start with Elateridae. It looks like a lycid mimic.

Its a type of wasp. Hymenoptera. Im sure someone else can help you further here. Whilst they can sting, you shouldn't need to kill it.
