No. They are more worried about mating than eating. You should be fine. Now, if you have a few thousand of them in your garden, that would be a different story.

Their shells are somewhat translucent. It's hard to tell from the pic whether Elvis has left the building.

I'd bet it's a shell. Most of the ones I find are attached to something like that fence. Maybe it's easier for them to molt holding onto something...

Kudos to King Colby for bringing this wildly popular thread back to 5AF. Really ties the place together.

I look forward to LITT freaking me out by knowing what these horrifying beasts are.

Also that cicada is clearly juicing.

Oh I know. I have no other bugs in the house. They not only eat other bugs they are fast and hate humans so more often then not they skeedaddle out of a room before you see them. They also hate human food so that's not a concern either.

They are just so creepy looking and so...damn...fast...
