Q: I have potato bugs in my vegetable garden. How can I rid myself of these pesky critters?
A: Drench your entire yard with gasoline and set it ablaze. Once the fire has burned itself out and the ground has cooled, cultivate the soil to a depth of seven feet, saturate the area with battery acid and top the surface with gasoline. After a few minutes, most of the surviving potato bugs, now irritated, will burrow up for air. Set the yard on fire again, and let it burn itself out. The remaining bugs should be crisped. Add water. Only then, and only maybe, will you rid yourself of potato bugs.

dont see them a lot around my area, THANK GOD...but I used to live in this apartment that was below street level so our back yard was real moist and we would find these things fairly regularly.
my dad was sleeping on the floor once and woke up to one staring him in the face from about 3" away
a friends uncle put on a pair of pants and felt something odd down there....pulled off his pants and lo and behold...
funniest part of the whole thing is that I emailed the person who designed the site to tell them how funny it was and I got this as a response:
"thanks. now go back and buy a potatobugs.com shirt, mug, frisbee or thong. our electricity has been turned off and we haven't eaten since Wednesday night. thanks.
potatobugs.com"
WTF was THAT?

I don't even want to talk about my week in the Bahamas on a mission trip in the cabin we dubbed "auschwitz" with the flying ant and spider infestation.
