Your letter to the bugman: Hi. This bug was found on my daughters chair at a park we were at. They started screaming. I know why once I saw it.
How you want your letter signed: K
Eyed Elater
Dear K,
This distinctive beetle is an Eyed Elater, the largest North American Click Beetle. It is considered harmless to humans, and its large false eyespots will deter a large predator into thinking the Eyed Elater might be a much larger threat.
