I live in NYC and have recently had my apartment treated for bed bugs and roaches. I found this dead bug today, July 10th.

Dear Curious in NYC,
This is a seed pod. It will grow into a plant. We do not know which plant.
That looks like one of those fictional bugs from the scary movie “The Faculty”. It was an aquatic bug that couldn’t live without water.
Our editorial staff has to admit the guilty pleasure of having enjoyed “The Faculty”.
