For the lasat three days my neighbor has found these on his hive. After researching it's a milkweed Assasin Bug. Has anyone every had this become a problem?

We'll I'm a rookie, but we have those in the garden, and that's 50 ft from the hive. I've not seen that in the hive, or on the hive. Where they find a food source, they will multiply, at least as my veggies are concerned. As far as I know,(yeah I wrote that out ) the best way to hit them is soapy water as juvies, or hand pick 'em.

They will get a few, so will spiders and birds...unless they show up in force I wouldn't sweat it.

Funny as can be. I saw that same bug last night here...LOL.... I tried to get a picture of one on my hive last night that was lurking then i noticed that they were balling one on the landing board that had a bee in its clutches that was already dead. They handles the one on the landing board and I smashed one the other day that had another bee. Part of nature i guess....
