Looking for help ID’ing these two varieties of bugs in upstate NY. They are swarming around garage windows and outside front door. Had multiple pest companies evaluate them and am getting mixed opinions. One company said they are subterranean termites. An other said they are stoneflies. Thank you in advance!IMG_1117.jpeg

100% not termites. Just leave them alone and take a deep breath.

I agree, the one in the middle looks like some kind of wasps, and the others are dipterans (flies).
