A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
The black bug’s abdomen has an orange color on its margin. It has an exoskeleton which makes it outer covering tough.
This nocturnal insect was found inside the house near window between 10:00 -10:30 PM. The building where it was found is an old house with wooden structures.
If you found an insect with similar features handle it with care and do not crush or attempt to hold it with bare hands because it is a blood-sucker insect and its feces might carry some parasites. Its bite is painless and can cause allergic reaction to some individuals.
