PAGING LITT (HUGE BUG AT WORK RELATED)

[ulf]

where the hell do you guys work

[JoseCuervo]

looks pretty similar to a wolf spider

[Letang Is The Truth]

That was my first guess as well however I am much less familiar with spiders

[MRandall25]

It looks bigger than any wolf spider I've ever seen.

African Kissing Bug?

[JoseCuervo]

African Kissing Bug?

only one way to find out

[Letang Is The Truth]

Definitely a wheel bug of the assassin bug family not sure or speciation thi

[Kraftster]

I killed what I thought was an assassin bug this morning but it smelled like I killed a stink bug when I killed it. Are they related? Do they smell? Or was this just a mutant stink bug?

[mac5155]

Someone told me that they released this big mutant bug to go kill all the stink bugs. Could this be that bug they are talking about?

I heard that thing sucks blood of vertebrates. That... that doesnt sound good. Although, I guesss a mosquito does the same thing..

this is a great ideA... except we will then have a big mutant bug problem

[mikey287]

LITT, probably an easy one...what say you?

[MRandall25]

That looks like a cockroach.

[mikey287]

That was my thought as well, a little cockroach. Just wasn't quite sure...

[Letang Is The Truth]

If I had to guess right now id say brown banded cockroach but the legs look really funny. Maybe it's the angle of the shot

We have a weird looking spider that has repeatedly come back from the dead and invaded our apartment. Next time he shows up, i'll need to remember to put a picture here.

[bhaw]

We seem to have more bugs after our monthly pest service than before. I know some of it is them coming out of the ground that was sprayed, but there are a bunch of the little SOBs that never die.

Also had a ton of hibiscus mealey bugs on our potted hibiscus plants. Apparently after some research, there is no bug poison known to kill them (how?), so I had to prune away and kill some the old fashion way.

Litt... I did some work today with an entomologist. Looking at emerald ash borers. They're trying to make decoys of them and they wanted to see how light reflects off the decoys compared to the actual bugs, so I shot the bugs and decoys with a laser. Fun times...



The bug itself is the one on the clear right side that looks like a yellow glowing spot.

In case you guys don't know what they look like:

lol, poor bug.

[blackjack68]

Invasive bastards. Nuke 'em.

[count2infinity]

Invasive bastards. Nuke 'em.

That's what these guys want to do. Mass produce decoys that are electrified to kill 'em all.
