Yup. My grandson likes to catch them and yank their wings off. My very own exterminator.

one of the most usefull insects to have around if you have a garden or fruit trees. People pay to get em. I hear if you kill them your teeth will fall out, but that could be superstition, I don't know.

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.
