Yesterday I parked my car in a parking lot under a tree and came back to find it covered in this species. Of course being an entomophobe (fear of insects) i proceeded to go home and kill them all. Are they poisonous however? It might be just because I'm in Florida but this species down here is a lighter yellow color. More keep coming out of the cracks of my car every now and then, just wanna know how safe these are.

@b5c7d6 which one the one with the spikes is a little toxic and can cause a swealinng if it stings you but the weird looking one is harmless and shouldnt be a problem
