Can anyone ID this bug?
 
Could not get a great picture, (focus), but I've seen a couple of these lately. Anyone? :)

Need more info... eat it and get back to us what it tastes like.

That looks like an orange lady bug, also known as an Asian beetle. They have been replacing the traditional red lady bugs (natural selection?). The orange ones stink when you squish them. During the fall, I vacuum large numbers of them around the windows, since I think they hibernate and come back in the spring.

It does look sort of like a tick, but aren't ticks more of a hard shell insect? These are just small and lightweight. :confused:

that is the infamous caps lock design bug - try bashing it with a hammer or use a program that assigns the caps lock key to do nothing

It looks like the rare MAC bug. At least it is not the common Windows bug.

NO! It is the rare capshift bug... they only live between the caps and shift keys... extremely rare and protected... squish it and go to jail!

They die in extreme heat..Doesn't have to be fire though..

genrex 10-31-2012 07:17 PM
Wait until you see evidence that there's more of them. It's possible that you only had one bedbug, picked up from somewhere...

They are all over... Stayed in a hotel lately? My parents found them in a hotel in Nebraska, and hightailed it out of there....

Denis, does it have a slit on the back for wings? Bed bugs don't have wings. What I posted does, though they don't really fly, but they are very common - albeit when the temps are above 75.

Wash bedding. At the same time, vac and empty the filter in outside trash and blow out w/compressor.

Indoor air pollution.
