Dad used to have an exotic insect collection from the 1950's...he gave it to someone for his schoolwork who had it evaluated...apparently some of the species in there were extremely rare and the damn thing was almost worth a house :p

Texas, but I also spent a lot of time in the summer in Mississippi, Missiouri and Oklamhoma.

 

The worst I remember was my uncles who was a rice and soybean farmer and had no air-conditioner.

 

I also remember finding these a lot as a child in Texas. Not that it is a insect, but the Horney Toad eats insects. Although it might have a little difficulty eating the Giant Weta.

Pesticides have all but wiped the Horney Toad out.
