Bad Bugs-which are not safe?

[FaaFaa]

I have been reading on here, a lot, probably too much, since other things are slacking. This site is SOOO adicting! :study: :study: Anyway I saw a post about lightning bugs being toxic to beardies. I knew about wasps and spiders and ants already. I did a search and didn't come up with anything, but is there a list or could we generate one of known toxic bugs? My beardie loves to go outside and has on occasion ate the stray bug. I always get nervous, cuz I have no idea what is safe and what isn't.

Thanks!

tomato worms, tobacco worms, lightening bugs. Those are the worst offenders..
Any wild insects always pose a threat of something, parasites to chemical poisoning.
