What Bug is This?

I know this isn't a bug forum, but I figure you guys probably know your fair share about bugs.

I just came in from mowing, and felt this on my shoulder. I was going to kill it or throw it outside, but I decided to take its picture before trying to feed it to a pitcher. It flew away once outside, though.

its some type of weevil. Kill it. ;)
 
noooooo!!! Don't kill the weevil!!!!!
 
It is a weevil, and considering weEVILs, I would kill that thing before it has a chance to bore into the rhizomes of your plants...
 
Crap. I guess it's good it left. I hope my plants are gonna be all right. :-(
 
when it doubt, smoosh the crap outta any and every insect. Theres more, trust me. :)

Ugh, there are to many people with this way of thinking. My brothers friend killed a giant silk moth just because. Makes me angry sometimes.
 
Most insects aren't a problem. Killing every insect you don't know is like people who kill every plant they don't know because it might be a weed. If a Sarracenia popped up in their yard, the Roundup would come out for sure.
