There's a moth, a true bug, and another flyingn thing with a needle at the end. Thanks in advance for any replies!

I the two with the needles look a lot like a species of Snake Fly (Not sure though) and the red beetle looks a lot like an Eastern Box Elder (Only problem is it's coloration is strange, perhaps it recently molted?), here are links for both for reference, I have no idea on the moth though.

Snake Fly: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snakefly

I hope this helps! I'm no professional so a second opinion would probably help but I hope this sets you on the right track! : )

The first image is of a tiny wasp, but I cannot put a family name on it at the oment.
The second image is of a plant bug; I believe it is in the family Miridae, but I need to do a bit more checking.
The third image is of a parasitic wasp; likely in the family Braconidae.
About the fourth image - how big is it? If it is a moth, it most likely is in the family Noctuidae.
