I think this is a False Milkweed Bug (Lygaeus turcicus) but it could be a Small Milkweed Bug (Lygaeus kalmii). Without a clear photo of it, especially of the head I can't be sure. See the "remarks" section of this page: http://bugguide.net/node/view/102855 and compare with this page: http://bugguide.net/node/view/460
