It’s a green lacewing! It’s also known as a “stinkfly” since it produces a foul odour when threatened! I learned that the hard way when I had one of these in my bathroom and humanely got it out of there
bad joke, spiders are not bugs only insects of the order hemiptera classified as bugs and spiders aren’t even insects. maybe if you drank fewer beer and spent more time studying you would know that but it’s your life
As with most insects, it pretty much always depends on how convenient / inconvenient it is to capture & release them at the time of finding them. If it is very late and they sit in a bad spot then I’m not gonna go through the hassle. If they release some stink bomb shit when feeling threatened then I’m even less inclined to do so.

You were rescuing it and it felt threatened? stupid bugs.
To give him/her credit, I must’ve appeared like one of the Titans from Attack on Titan 😂
Dude they’re insects. They’re not smart enough to know the difference. Most animals aren’t smart enough to know the difference.

Doesn’t seem to happen when they get squashed.
Please don’t kill these insects. While these only eat pollen, their larvae are highly carnivorous and will eat tons of pests.
