It jumps about like a crazy jumping thing....does anyone know what the hell this is?!?! or do I have to keep calling it the evil black satanic warbug thingie..?
 
It looks like a cricket.

Edit: I'm quite certain that it is a cricket after a bit of research. :)

"Any of various insects of the family Gryllidae, having long antennae and legs adapted for leaping. The males of many species produce a shrill chirping sound by rubbing the front wings together."
 
that's cool Sonnenritter, but there's two problems;

1 - it hasn't made any noises... =/

2 - evil black satanic warbug thingie sounds cooler than 'cricket'. :kickass:


I still haven't figured out how to kill it.
 
If it looks like this:

It's a potato bug.

What you caught looks like a regular cricket.... if it's scared, it won't chirp :p

Ooooh... scary :p

Out of curiosity, do they not have lots of those around where you live, SculptedCold?
We have MILLIONS of those guys around here, and some girls are scared of them so they are always good projectiles.:p
 
nah, that's the only one i've ever seen, but of course there's zillions chirping every night. You're more likely to be having them running around there in texas though. =D The roaches can be bad too! >_<

/me wubs Texas.



oh yeah, dad came home and kindly let the evil black satanic warbug thingie out into the garden. :bah: I wanted to kill it.
