I did and it looks like one. I just wanted to see in anyone else could confirm because I've never seen one in real life till today. Monday I'll take it to the extension office and have them check the ones I've caught. I am in Southwest colorado and they aren't common here.

I would say it is blister bugs. Many years ago when I lived in Belton our neighbors had alfalfa fields. When they would start baling my back porch would be covered in the nasty little bugs.
