These guys have a nasty bite - I wouldn't recommend CPR!

Thanks! Wheel bug appears to have found its winter (final?) home on my front steps. Still there after several days. I haven't checked it for life signs. 911 probably out of the question! :)

Wow, they're still out and about? That's one hardy bug!
