Found this thing in the house and I can't identify it. Little bigger than a Robber fly. About the size of a mud dauber. Has a rather large hairy proboscis.

I believe in science and I’m an insufferable [censored] Actually, BBC is pretty damn good "You Cannot Simultaneously Be Politically Correct And Intellectually Honest!"

[quote=Michael W.]Found it. A type of Robber fly AKA Black Bee Killer. These guys kill wasps and hornets. Looks like they might be good to have around. Lets see, it kills wasp & hornets, I don't want that bad Mother Fatrina biting me

 Yep bee killer. Other kinds of bee killers are the same color and markings of bees.

I think I have seen one around before but never very close so I couldn't really see detail. If they kill the wasps then I like having it around. Of course this one won't be killing any more.
