Masked Hunter (Nymph Stage)

Commonly found inside buildings, homes, and crevices where dust accumulates

Carnivorous; feeds on lace bugs, bed bugs, flies, and other small arthropods

Nymphs exhibit 'masking' camouflage by covering their bodies with dust, lint, and debris to stalk prey; primarily nocturnal

Beneficial as a natural predator of indoor pests like bed bugs, but can deliver a painful (though not toxic) bite to humans if handled
