Maybe if your a/c goes off again you can go down and check everywhere for a bug ....beats sleeping in 90 degree heat.
Nah - this was a little guy, altho some species of them get very big. There are lots of pics - just Google.
Myth has it that they would get in your ear and lay eggs and the larvae would go to your brain and that's how they got their name, It's those pincers that make them so creepy looking I think.
I don't think I would want to check the a.c. out myself - not worth getting electrocuted over. I'll leave the fixing to the pros......
