Wheel Bugs (assassin bugs) devour Bollworms!

Had quite a few of these guys in my data sets the last two days.  The first one on my drop cloth was a bit of a surprise.  This is an assassin bug, this particular one is more specifically called a wheel bug, due to the ‘wheel’ on its back.  Just one of these guys can really devour a lot of bollworms.  Pretty handy to have around if you are entering an average peak ‘bollworm’ week.  (Hint, hint, we are…)  Have a good one.
