Crawling bug in basement
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
August 31, 2018
Size: smaller than a fingernail
Found this guy crawling across the tile floor in a finished basement. We have had some water/mold issues near where he was crawling, unsure if that's related.

Frassed, ID given, no longer needed in the guide...
Images will remain visible here for thirty days, and then be removed from the system. Thanks for joining Bugguide! :)

Porcellionides pruinosus...
See here. Likely just attracted to the moisture and probably the darkness of the basement.
