Your letter to the bugman: Hi – I saw this beetle/roach on the sidewalk near a big belly trash can. It was big enough to fit in the palm of my hand. It has no antennas or fuzz/fur on its legs. It was totally smooth. I’ve never seen this before and can’t find anything online. Maybe you can help?

Dear Ryan,
How quickly did it move? This sure looks like a fake Cockroach to us, like something might find on Small Scale World.
It didn’t move at all. This crossed my mind but I didn’t think much of it because I have seen other bugs not move right away either
I thought it was fake too but wasn’t about to test that theory.
Ok thanks for your input!
