Is anyone familiar with the wheel bug?
I have noticed a certain type of bug, called a wheel bug, which is in the assassin bug family, on my eastern USA property. It looks like a prehistoric mosquito, but without wings. It uses its beak to prey on/kill other creepy-crawlies and insects such as spiders and bumblebees. Apparently, it has a painful bite, so I would NOT want to hold one. Also, apparently not many people have heard of this scary-looking bug. Have any of you guys seen or heard of the wheel bug? By the way, the name comes from the spiny half wheel shaped-thing on its back.

Beetles very much. No one can tell you anything without a photo.
It's hard to find pictures of this bug, but as soon as I can snap one, I will post it! Thanks!
