Anyone ever get one of these in their ponds?
Giant Water Bugs can get to be three inches
long, have these spincer type front legs and
bite.
Predaceous Diving Beetles are about an inch
long, hang out at the surface of the water with
their hind ends sticking out. Their lavrae are
called Water Tigers.
All three of them eat small fish and tadpoles and
small frogs.
======================
I can't recall spotting the beetles themselves, but do remember seeing the
Water Tigers eating tadpoles and fry.
