This one irritated me but got its 'reward'... its "sting" was stuck into the cucumber and glued in place by the cucumber's sap :twisted:
I pulled its wings off and left it there to suffer...
I am guessing that in a week or 2 its babies will hatch and spread, so in a week or so I will harvest that cucumber and feed its young to my remaining silvers

I'd say the only reason it bit me was because it felt squashed in the shirt.
A very good reason to check your clothes and footwear before putting them

Had the same with a red back spider on my back!
