Suprab1 Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Looks like a cockchafer (snigger) to me. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cockchafer Ah good man . I left the windows open in the house a few weeks ago & found 2 of these in the house at night. I thought they were cockroaches but after reading that & looking at the female fics this is what they were. Still a scary sight to see in your house though.

C_Strike Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 definately not a cockchafer. None of its anatomical features match. Where did you find the critter? Do you own a pond, or neighbours or something. that to me looks like a diving beetle, Dytiscus marginalis. quite common in Uk.. Obviously usually found in ponds, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwilkinson Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Spiders are Satan's children put on this planet from his damned kingdom to put fear in the hearts of mankind. They freak me out completely:scared: I know its irrational and I am unable to think of a single event from which point I did not like them. I have been scared of them for as long as I can remember.
