  Anyone know which insect this is?
  It was crawling up a wall in my house (until last night).
  Thanks in advance for any help.

  I have since found out it’s a Ichneumon wasp (female).

  Ichneumonidae; yeah you got it. They have a characteristic horse head in the wing structure, which makes them easy to identify.
