Giant Water Bug can give one a nasty bite. One person described the bite as very painful, causing the finger and whole hand to swell up dramatically, to the point where they lost all use of the hand,and remaining thus for about two weeks. If you are going to handle this insect, it should be done with care.

putting the boats away for the season, the fishing boat decided to wander off so I had to strip down and swim after it...it was FUCKING cold. Then I see one of these bastards swimming towards me....FUCK THAT.
