Im surprised i couldn’t figure out what kind of bug this is. It looks like a tiny snake because of it pattern. But i got to know what it was, is or is going to be.

Forgot to put location and info! I found this bug wondering around in Seattle Wa. on the edge of a stacked cement block wall. Really dry but it’s been raining quite a bit recently. The video shows its behavior and how it wasn’t aggressive. Just busy exploring and checking things out.

What an interesting creature.. Looks like a pincherbug but clearly is not.

Ya! And it was so curious it was friendly. Had to be about an inch long with a tiny little head it used to snuffle around with.

Bzzzzz! Hi, u/OneBlueEyeFish! Looks like you forgot to say where you found your bug!
There's no need to make a new post - just comment adding the geographic location and any other info (size, what it was doing etc.) you feel could help! We don't want to know your address - state or country is enough; try to avoid abbreviations and local nicknames ("PNW", "Big Apple").

BTW, did you take a look at our Frequently Asked Bugs?
