    Does anyone know what this thing is? Palm Tree was asking on one of my pages and we don't know. So here is his bug.

    " Maybe someone knows this type of bug. I do not know it and this is the first year that I encountered them on my figtree. "

    I've been surfing on www.whatsthatbug.com and I think your bug might be some kind of longhorn or borer. I just can't find an exact match anywhere.
