Hi Richard,
The bark (& ambrosia) beetles are now treated as a subfamily, Scolytinae, of 
the weevil family, Curculionidae.  Not sure if the bug is a mirid – I don’t see 
a discernable cuneus in the hemelytra and closed cells also in the membranous 
portion.  Not used to looking at New Zealand fauna.
Fiona, this site might help on that bug is a mirid. 
http://www.landcareresearch.co.nz/science/plants-animals-fungi/animals/invertebrates/systematics/hemiptera/hemiptera-virtual-collection/heteroptera/miridae
You might be able to search through it for more insects.

The first two are adult beetles, most likely bark beetles of the family 
Scolytidae. They resemble Hylastes spp.

The third creature appears to be an adult heteropteran, most likely a member of 
the family Miridae.



The images don't allow for much more precision beyond these conclusions.

You can tell I'm old school & my age for using a "retired" name.
Don't like "brown snake", either.

It is *Storeria dekayi,* formerly known as the DeKay's snake but now
unfortunately the official common name is the "Brown snake" (a rather stupid
name as it is not brown).  These gentle, harmless snakes are common in urban
and suburban settings, particularly around human habitations.

DeKay's snakes are active throughout the year when the weather is warm

under flat covers (rocks, metal, wood) to hide in, so the presence of this
snake in your basement might indicate a moisture issue, or perhaps just a

I have removed snakes from glue boards many times by using mineral oil,
which can be worked between the snake and the board, if you have a live one
on a glue board that you wish to set free.
