Do they rip pieces of flesh out of you like the ones we have here?

Nice shot of a horrid creature. Those damn things used to terrorize us as kids in AL.

From what I heard the other day, only the females bite, and they do so to feed their young. You got a great, up-close and personal shot.

Remember for insects only the females cause problems. Only female ants, bees and wasps sting (almost all of them). Also only female mosquitos fly.

Nice shot! Those things hurt like a Dickens and leave nice welts.
