Anyone Know What This Is?
I think I keep having these in my house.
They keep showing up in my bedroom. One was in the livingroom, but I think it followed me up to my room. I'm pretty sure that one died.
A few weeks ago another one popped up, and disappeared.
Now one is back again--showed up in my room, and followed me to the bathroom.
It definitely likes light and open windows...hangs out on the window screens whenever possible.
It kind of flies like a wasp.
But it's faster and seems like it targets you if you get too close.
When he's landed, he looks a lot like a little cricket or something.
I don't like him! Do you think he will bite or sting? Doesn't seem like there's any end part to him at all, so maybe the stinger is not a problem...
Also, mine looks like he only has the two back sets of legs.
You can barley see the "feelers" in this pic, but mine have them very prominently (very waspish/cricketish?).
The bugguide doesn't have much. I'm not buying the bit about an "aphid."
Anyone?

this is important too...because all bugs are out to get anne.
That is a wierd one - I've never seen anything like it. I have to say it is pretty ugly, but I don't think it will bite or sting
I don't know what it is, either. It does look rather unsettling. It doesn't look like it has a stinger from the photo, but I don't think I would buy that it is "some sort of aphid" either!
it must run in the family, because i know for a fact that every potentially harmful bug within a one mile radius of me, is in fact gunning for me and me alone.
Not my favorite bug, in fact I might be tempted to seriously dissuade it from life in my part of the woods. No biting????
Looks a wee bit crickety
