Aquatic BugsBeetle???
My dog found this in our front porch area, in central Oregon. It was in the rocks, near a deck. I have no idea what it is….can you help??
Thanks, No Bugs Allowed
Dear Barbers,
You don’t have a beetle, but a Giant Water Bug, also know as a Toe-Biter or Electric Light Bug. They can bite painfully, are the largest North American True Bug, and are equally at home in the air or in the water, but they are clumsy on the land.
