Cariblatta lutea Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Supposedly the largest assassin bug available in the hobby. These guys will take down Blaberus easily as seen in pic. Look at those spikes! Even nymphs are spiky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All About Arthropods Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Very beautiful! Those are massive, you're brave to be holding those ,I certainly wouldn't......well maybe with very thick gloves or something! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks They are quite docile and probably won't bite unless you grab them (though they might spit venom at you sometimes). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, never would have though that they were handleable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya, those are easy to handle as well as long as you don't physically harm them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salmonsaladsandwich Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Oh geez I didn't realize they were that big... I wouldn't feel comfortable holding that either. I wonder how bites from this and a giant waterbug would rank on the schmidt pain index. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
