Let's see...
Spiders and Mantis, and Lady Bugs could be there to eat the more pest like bugs
Earthworms could provide nutrition to growing plants
Spiders and Silk Worms could provide fabric from thread
Glow Worms and Fire Flies could provide light.
Leeches could be used to remove poisons from your blood. Maybe some other bug could help heal brute damage or stitch up bleeding wounds. Army surgeon ants?
Maybe some bugs could have reagents in their system as well, to be extracted.
Space mantises should be rare but can be tamed as pets and rideable if tamed. They would be huge due to mutations caused by space radiation and experimentation. Feed them smaller critters to try and tame one.

No they should be a playable race and use a scaled up version of the FTL sprite.
This is probably the worst, most stupid, useless, dumbest, and a lot of other words I don't know idea ever. So I will hide it in a spoiler.
Lyrics:
I am a millipede. I am amazing
I Command you to gaze upon my face!
You never find someone charming as I am
I'm the swankiest bug out in space
I'm a star. I'm a God. I'm a thing to behold
Their are none as resplendent as I
With my sleek little legs
And my 300 eggs
Of my majesty none can deny
Because I am a Millipede
I am mysterious
When I vanish I never leave a trace
You will not find a big with such illusions
I'm a creature of fathomless grace
Millipede meets allure
Millipede meets couture
Millipede meets grandeur
Millipede meets saviour
Millipede meets mature
Millipede meets so pure
Millipede meets the cure for all lesser breeds
I am a Millipede
I am a champion
No one else In the Universe keeps pace
You'll never find someone quiet so enchanting
While I'm here there's just no second place
I'm and idol. A king. I'm an object of awe
There are none quiet so gleaming as I
I've got glamour to spare
You are Right when you stare
I'm the who, what, when, where and the why
JOIN ME!
I am a Millipede (She is the Millipede)
I am Astounding (She is Astounding)
Wisdom flows from my personage like lace (Wisdom flows from her personage like lace)
You'll never find someone darling as I am (You'll never find someone darling as she is)
I'm the swankiest
Tutelary pest
Certainly best dressed
Bug out in space!
Can't remember which thread it was in, but earlier I suggested having wild dogs spawn on the station especially around maintenance tunnels and leftover food/garbage.
Now that I think about it, that stuff could also attract bears too. Maybe that would encourage a bit more cleanliness around the station. That or inspire more serial litterers.
