The earwig (some photos of an earwig that came to say hello.)

in #nature6 years ago

While out in the yard cleaning up a mess of wood i came across an earwig, the kids from next door had been in the yard and asked what it was.

As I picked it up to show them they got freaked out about the little insect what is probably more scared of me than what they were of it.

I showed them and all they kept saying was that the back pincers would get me and sting me, I thought that this was really funny as I have never known of an earwig in the UK or the world that had a stinger.

I had to have a quick look at google to see what it had to say about an earwig, and there is nothing to be worried about.

here is my pictures of the earwig

interesting little thing in it? I was nice enough to pop it in to my garden on the back, I think it will be happy over there a way from the house.
