No clue. Some kind of tick for sure. Definitely wouldn't want it near me.

:faint:Yuck, I have no idea, but that is creepy. It looks like some kind of a beetle. Where the heck did you find that creature? And hopefully he doesn't have any friends.

A tick would have 8 legs. It looks like a variety of stag beetle to me. How big was it?

Apparently, according to my bug expert, it's a predatory beetle covered in parasitic mites!!! I tied to google more info but came up empty handed. Thank god I found it outside!! It had 6 legs. Gross!!!

:eeeew: I thought those were its babies. Of course children especially teenagers can be parasitic mites, lol. The fact it is predatory in its name makes you wonder wth it does with those pinchers!!
