Title: What is this insect??
Post by: MagicValley on June 13, 2015, 10:47:29 AM
I found this bug on my bottom slide, under the screen.  Does anyone know what it is?

The big pollen grain next to it fell out of a bee's basket, so you can get some idea of the bug's size.

Looks like a larval ladybug I see them all the time on my milkweed. Hard to tell color but I mostly see them black with orange markings and that looks like what I am seeing there.
