Oh, ugh! I remember those nasty potato bugs from my California days. Give me the crawlies! The last time I came across one of those things was in the oddest place imaginable. I'd gone to see a play by one of the small local theater groups in Palos Verdes (I knew one of the actors in the play) and they had a kind of crude refreshment room for intermission. There was a bucket sitting to one side of the room and OMG there was a HUGE potato bug sitting in it! Eeeek! (No, thank you, I don't think I need any refreshments at this time..
)
