Living in Greater Houston, you've probably had a moment when you looked down at the grass or the sidewalk (and hopefully not the kitchen counter) and wondered, "What the heck is that?" A bug of some sort.

In the audio above, entomologist Erin Mills, director of the Cockrell Butterfly Center at Houston's Museum of Natural Science, answers listener questions ranging from some of the common insects we're seeing around Houston these days, to identifying the bug (above) that a listener named Howard emailed us about (it’s an assassin bug), and about the disappearance of fireflies in the area over the years.
