Did any little bees buzz up to your porch last weekend on Halloween, looking for a sugary snack? How did you treat them? Did you smile and coo at their costumes? Wiggle your gnarled hands at them menacingly? Or did you pounce from the shadows, grab them with your strong front legs, and use your sharp beak to inject poison and then suck up their liquefied body tissues?

 

Not that last one? Well, you must not be a Jagged Ambush Bug. These True Bugs have several cool adaptations that make them a great addition to your pollinator garden.
