Bitten Clothesline

Bitten ClotheslineBlack and yellow bug on clothesline, help?

Hello,
I'm hanging on the laundry, and there is this striped yellow and black (not a bee) butterfly thing the research does not move. I can not hang the machine until it moves. I am a little afraid of bugs, because if possible I will always make you bite or sting and swell. If I had to blow this bug will bite / sting me?

There are many mimics bees and wasps that use black and yellow as a deterrent to predators. Many moths, ex. Sycamore drillers, borers fish, butterflies, wasps, butterflies Virginia Creeper hawks and others use those color patterns to fear or at least confuse the birds and other animals from eating them. Most butterflies time require some warming of the front wings to fly, they can sometimes be stubborn, warm up muscles before the flight, even with the harassment of us. This insect is probably safe, and if it looks like a moth, it usually is. Butterflies are quite in the dark when it comes to identifying, then you're probably on the right track!

Good luck, hope this helps!

If it looks like a moth, it is probably a moth. If so, it's harmless. He is also acting like a moth (they often do not move until they are forced to - you can actually push them out of the way, sometimes without their make-wing). If you do not want to touch it, just take a card (or perhaps two cards) and gently scoop off the clothesline and drop it elsewhere.
Ha! was distracted before I could finish, and Chris beat me to the punch.

Most bugs do not bite. The bugs that you should fear are the bees and wasps, ants, mosquitoes and deer flies and buffalo gnats and so should be avoided. You will notice that the bugs you want to avoid flying after you. So when you see a bug there and just do not come after you you can safely take a closer look. Then the next thing you know you'll say, he ran away before I can get a good overview.

stop being a Wussy
and discard the bug
