Finally got an ID (thank you Stephen Luk) for a crane fly I photographed eight years ago in Florida: Nephrotoma suturalis suturalis. The subspecies determination is due, in part, to the black-tipped femurs. #insect #diptera #tipulidae #flies #macro #inaturalist www.inaturalist.org/observations...
I bought these to deter pests around my front door. If they work like others have claimed I am going to purchase more for other areas.
