just a lil' Palmetto bug. Or as we say here in the South...Palmettuh bug, or water bug. See, we don't have roaches in our immaculate homes.
Well, we are in the grips of a major drought, and with the plague comes the pestilence.These bugs are just in search of a little water. Too bad they tried coming into my home to find it.
Yes, they are big enough to put a saddle on, like anyone would do that. Thankfully, they do not 'infest' the home, but merely are passing through. This comes from a doctor at Duke, so it must be true. Too bad it decided to make a detour through Casa de Mah. And I might also add that I will not ever touch that quarter again.
So this little fella will go with the bat, in the chapter of my life called Varmints That Crossed My Threshold But Wished They Hadn't.
Norman Bates got nuthin' on me...

Shudder! The only way I will blow a million dollar prize is if I have to touch a palmettugh bug! I can't do it! Ewww!
Now tell me you haven't taken a ride on one of these flying critters. Don't they have any of these animals in your neck of the palm trees?
Ewwwww. I bet those make a really fabulous crunchy sound when you step on 'em!
sick. sick. sick. sick. SICK.
maybe even worse than cockroaches. maybe.
We've got some critters alright, but at least our shave their legs~ Check out the hair on it's legs...ewwww~
Eww! Shudder! Even the little antenna creep me out!

We caught two of them and put them in a pill container (childproof) for Logan. She LOVED it... sick child. She was always asking me to hold it... NO THANK YOU!
