Ground Beetle

6200 We found him crawling around the base of our garbage bin inside of our apartment. We did have our balcony door open earlier in the day, however I’m just concerned that this may be a cockroach?? From Welland, Ontario.

Number 6200 – This is a ground beetle (Coleoptera: Carabidae); the vast majority of these are general predators on other small invertebrates. They sometimes accidentally get indoors during their searches for prey.
