Hello,
I saw two or three of these guys on my glass this morning....Im hoping that they are the harmless 'pod hunting type, but I want to be sure. Sorry that the photos aren't the best, but at the maximum these guys are about 3mm in length. Thanks !! Steve |

the white or clear ones are harmless, it's the red or brown ones you don't want

Thanks for the info - quite honest if they are harmless I don't mind them - unless I start to see a population explosion.
