Crickets, Camel Crickets and Mole CricketsDear bugman,
Please help us identify this fine bug we found, it has piqued our curiousity. It was found dead in the water near our sump pump in our basement. Being bug phobic, I asked my husband to remove the bug. I went on about how big it was. It was not until he removed it that he remarked "That is the wierdest bug I have ever seen" So we tried researching but couldn’t find
what it was. Your website is a great resource.

Hi Megan,
You have some type of cricket, an Orthopteran. Sorry I can’t give you a species name, but I will work on it.
