My First Wheel Bug

Post by MorpheusPA » July 25th, 2009, 7:15 pm

I apparently picked up a wheel bug and brought it in the house--we found it on a shirt drying on the chair in the kitchen. Actually, I was alerted to the find by loud screams.

Nobody got bitten, it was just panic. Unfortunately, I had to kill it as I couldn't figure a good way of getting it back outside without risking the (painful, swollen, long-lasting) bite.

Given the size, ferocity, and rather dangerous nature of the bug, I'm hoping I don't see too many more...
