Pictured here crawling along my shorts. Apparently they'll attach themselves to flys and other flying insects to grab a ride off to other places.
You're viewing a single thread.
What's the scale here? Your link says they are typically less than 5mm, is that about the size of this one?
I'm wondering how many I've been around and not noticed?!
You've been around tons guaranteed, unless you're in the arctic
That's really cool. From the article it seems they are everywhere but never swarms of them just small numbers.
I would guess around 3mm for that one. I've never seen them either but happened to look down and saw it crawling on me while gardening
That's cool! I particularly like how some species travel by fly-back 😆
