[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 165148"] I have these 2 (as of right now) winged bugs between my window and screen and I'm not sure what they are. They are black, have an ant-like body, straight antennae and wings that seem to be equal in length and are about the size of a carpenter ant. I looked online and winged ants have elbow-like antennae and these are pretty straight with a little curl at the end. I don't see a stinger like a wasp. And they look right at me when I look at them. It's really creepy. I've tried to identify them via pictures on the web, but it's making me feel creepy-crawly. I'm worried it might be termites, but my landlord just bought this house last year and I'm 99% certain Ohio requires a termite inspection before the sale can close. Any ideas on how to tell what they are? I'd hate to have the landlord have an exterminator come out if it's just something I can take care of myself. But, I'm getting really creeped out and am feeling things all over me. *shiver* [/QUOTE]
