Yes- we’ve had a couple of biting/stinging encounters. Someone told me if the bug is red, not to touch it because it could be poisonous? But we have not been bitten by poisonous bugs, just the regular ones! It’s funny how kids aren’t scared of bugs until they are conditioned to by their screaming parents:)- when we first moved here, Vivi was excited to show me a new “huge” bug in her horses (toys). “Mommy, come quick I can’t catch it- it’s getting away!” And I went in there to find the LARGEST cockroach I have ever seen. It seriously was the size of a mouse!!!!! That was my introduction to Houston’s tropical bugs:).

What a cool thing to get to watch. My youngest loves to pick up everything she finds and my challenge with her is to get her to ask if it stings or bites before she touches it.
