I found this on my Zucchini plants.
I have been killing tons of squash bugs, and I am not sure if this is one of them that just looks different, or something else entirely.
Possibly some sort of Leaf footed bug? (I don't see the white stripe on the back and the legs do look different than the images I have) or if it is maybe a type of Assassin bug. I have been trying to figure out if I should kill it or not.
I would truly appreciate any help you all could give me.
This is an assassin bug known as a wheel bug, it's a general predator like most others of its ilk, and can give a very painful 'bite' if handled carelessly.
I thought that it was maybe some sort of assassin bug!
I am actually pretty happy to see it there (or at least I think I am) lol.
Hopefully it will help with the squash bugs too!
Thanks so much!
