I've found (2) of these buggers in the last week. Not sure what they are. One was found crawling up my leg in the bathroom, the other on the wall in my spare bedroom.

Never seen one like that but I need a clean picture to give you a class/species. But put in a glass take it outside and let it go. Bug's are cool and don;t piss them off. They out number you Bwahhh.

How odd that you took a picture of it.

How odd that you posted it.

How odd that I'm replying.

How odd this is something I would totally do if I had a bug in my room.

When we lived in NW New Jersey for a year ('93 - '94) those things were all over the place. I have no idea what they are.

Yuck!

Great , a few of my old bosses were emtimologist. (sp) or bug people. THey delt with bugs fine it's the people they don't get along with. I will send them the pic I am sure one of them knows what it is off the top of there head. If not I can do a genus search real quick. More then likly can;t get you the species but maybe I will get lucky. By the way I am real board right now if you can;t tell.
