We've found a few of these around and inside lately. We're under a bug contract so I called them.
When he came, and he's been working in the area for years, he didn't recognize it.

He took it back to have it identified.

Anyone know?

Any nuclear power plants nearby?

Mutant tick?

 

Spotted tree borer...

....Google it !!!!!!!

 

Could be a CIA bug.

If I were you I would sell and move to La Belle!

 

i don't think it's a spotted tre borer. The antenna head shape, carapace pattern and leg shape are different.

I think I'll name it fltsfshrus floridium

Looks like one to me. Spotted tree borer

 

There are some differences, I dont think its the spotted tree borer. At first glance it looks like some kind of Root Weavel. They like Rhododendrons, chewing on the leaves at night and then feed on the roots during the day, eventually killing the plant.
