Jenny’s blog inspired me to finally post the picture of this boxelder bug. Yes, I did scan the bug. But there’s a reason for it. My house was surrounded by these bugs so I thought I would try to identify what type of bugs these were before calling my landlord. I tried taking a picture of the bugs with my digital camera but it came out too blurry since I needed a close-up. So I trapped one of them inside a ziploc bag and scanned it. I then surfed the web and quickly matched it to the picture of a boxelder bug I found on some site. The scanned bug wasn’t harmed by the way (although I did scan him so that my landlord would know how to kill all of the bugs so I guess I’m a hypocrite).

Stumble it!
