Oncopeltus famelicus
± 7 mm - milkweed bug instar phase. Many huddled together.
Found on oleander in garden.
Thank you Johan and Mari, I think I chose the correct ID now. Thank you ietermagog (cool naam!)
Lovely colours!
I think it is milkweed bug instars as you originally said. (Oncopeltus famelicus)
i think this might be boxelder bugs. http://angelasentomlabnotebook.blogspot....
