    I didn't realize these things had taken over in NJ.The first time I ever saw them was in Korea, and we thought they were spiders. I haven't seen them in Texas yet.

    I hate them. WTF?

    How do you think people have been getting to work in New Jersey?

    No, they are an asian cricket that looks like a cross between a cockroach and a nightmare.

    Camel Spiders are worse. They chase people.

    Used to have these in our basement back on Long Island. They would scatter when the lights went on like roaches.

    I had one crawling up my leg last night and almost threw my back out killing it. They are surprisingly fragile, it was just like a smear of goo.
