My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

What kind of bug is this?

Friend it foe?

    Google Assasin Bug. There are many kinds.

    I had one get on my toe last week as I walked to turn on the hose spigot and it bit me. At first I thought it was a wasp that stung me because the bite made my toe feel like it was on fire. Only lasted about 10 minutes or so and no swelling. My Assasin bug was the orange one with the long body and long black legs.
