They dispatch their prey by stabbing it with their short beak (rostrum) and injecting it with potent chemicals that both paralyze their catch and soften its innards so they may be slurped out.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A different subfamily of Assassin bugs (<em>not<\/em>&nbsp;the Masked Hunter\u2019s) includes bugs called \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/bugguide.net\/node\/view\/1968832\/bgimage\">Kissing Bugs<\/a>\u201d &nbsp;&#8211; the ultimate in image ambiguity. They feed on the blood of mammals, including humans, and a few are notorious disease vectors; their nickname derives from their targeting the thin skin on their victim\u2019s face, especially the lips, often while said victim is asleep.&nbsp;The debilitating and potentially fatal Chagas disease of Central and South America is spread by these Kissing bugs, which bear a family resemblance to the Masked Hunter.&nbsp;There are a number of species of kissing bugs \u2013 mostly tropical, but one that gets into southern Illinois &#8211; and there are several kissing bug look-alikes on our landscape, but kissing bugs have not been recorded in Wisconsin.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"alignright uwm-c-img--right\"><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/field-station\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/380\/2024\/01\/masked-hunter-nymph13-9.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/field-station\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/380\/2024\/01\/masked-hunter-nymph13-9-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"bug on the floor\" class=\"wp-image-14539\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/field-station\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/380\/2024\/01\/masked-hunter-nymph13-9-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/uwm.edu\/field-station\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/380\/2024\/01\/masked-hunter-nymph13-9-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/uwm.edu\/field-station\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/380\/2024\/01\/masked-hunter-nymph13-9.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The good news is that Masked Hunters are insect-feeders, untiring consumers of bedbugs, pests that are staging a comeback in big cities everywhere thanks to the ease of world travel.&nbsp;The bad news is that they are untiring and, according to some references,&nbsp;<em>nearly exclusive<\/em>&nbsp;consumers of bedbugs, and these authors suggest that if you have the predator, perhaps you should check for the prey!&nbsp;Masked Hunters also live in nest colonies of Swallows, dining on small bedbug-relatives called \u201cSwallow bugs.\u201d The BugLady sees Masked Hunters on early summer nights on her front porch, to which they and hundreds of other insects are attracted by the porch light, and she has read that sowbugs, lacewings, flies, carpet and grain beetles, and earwigs show up on their dinner plates, too.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"alignleft uwm-c-img--left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/field-station\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/380\/2024\/01\/masked-hunter08-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"215\" src=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/field-station\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/380\/2024\/01\/masked-hunter08-1-300x215.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14538\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/field-station\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/380\/2024\/01\/masked-hunter08-1-300x215.jpg 300w, https:\/\/uwm.edu\/field-station\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/380\/2024\/01\/masked-hunter08-1.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>HANDLE WITH CARE (or preferably not at all)!!!
