Large Marge Bugs

Posted by tom | Sep 12, 2007

I prefer to call them Large Marge Bugs, but they are called Wheel Bugs and they belong to the Assasin Bug family. I've seen a few around our house (outside, thankfully!) and was right to steer clear. They pack a powerful punch, or rather, bite. But I'll keep my distance instead of squashing them (not that I would attempt to step on one without steel toed boots) because they eat the pests in my garden.  Whew, they do give me the willies though! -- http://www.hiltonpond.org/ThisWeek030901.html
