Masked Hunter

Found indoors in dark, undisturbed areas such as basements, attics, and around baseboards.

Carnivorous predator that feeds on other insects, including bed bugs, carpet beetles, and spiders.

Nymphs secrete a sticky substance that covers them in dust and debris for camouflage. They hunt at night and use a piercing proboscis to immobilize prey.

Beneficial as a natural predator of household pests, but can deliver a painful defensive bite if handled improperly.
