Mamasan--Those sound like the "Big Bugs" that Big Bug Creek is named after. Far too reminiscent of cockaroaches for me!

When I was a little girl down in Phx, we'd catch June bugs & tie a string or, rather, a thread to them so that they couldn't fly too far away. They were, briefly, our pets.

June bugs? Don't hate them, but never understood why they haven't gone extinct yet - with such poor locomotor skills and all. Glad you got some productive work done on the house, and some alone time!
