Does anyone know what the small red beetle thing is that seems to be
all over our garden this year? It's slightly smaller than a ladybird,
moves quickly and is totally red - and there are a lot of them this
year, haven't noticed them ever before.

Many thanks in advance.

Have you got a dry sunny garden?
Do they look a bit like a small bright red spider? If so I've forgotten
their name but they are harmless.
