Assassin BugsA very strange looking insect
I found a very large bug on outside on the window and I’d like to know if you can tell me what it is. It’s approximately 1- 1 1/2 inches long. I was wondering if it was some kind of large weevil because of the long nose. Thanks for any help you can give. I’ve never seen an insect like it–it’s a little scary looking!
