Re: ugly bug
Only if they think you are an aphid.
Even Jersulem crickets are harmless, they just look intimidating. They are
rather large, live underground and have a translucent appearance to the
body. I had been wondering about them and dispatching them for a couple of
years before a Saturday gardening newpaper insert had an article on them.
Since then I have even rescued a couple from drowning in my pool.
