CLOSED: DH found this creeper under my pillow....eek! What is it?

Stratford, TX(Zone 6b)

Ok...it looks really bad, and after it was frozen it put off a horrific odor! Nothing I can compare it to...someone said it might be a vinegaroon, but those look more like weird scorpions...this has no tail and no claws, but it does have icky looking jaws!

The picture was made using Google's Picasa...that way I can get all pics loaded at once instead of having to load several pics.

Oh, and what are those red dots along the body and the legs? Some kind of mite? So I have two critters for the price of one? Time for the exterminator!

Good god, man! I hope you are wrong!

I've now taken a closer look...it has 4 legs and an arm-like thingie on each side, plus the mouth pinchers.

But it does look like that awful thing. Did you serve in the Gulf, and if you did, did you ever encounter the giant camel spiders? Ugh.

Hey WiccanChick -

I've been on vacation, and not been online...

If I find another one, I'll try to catch it alive and send it to you if you're serious. You can have all I find. I sure don't want them!
