Yes, beetles in general don't smell great to me. They leave a fecal-like scent on my fingers when I hold them (Which I've always assumed is some sort of musk and not actual feces). I can smell ants too, but it's only when they're scared: They seem to release a chemical that smells to me like Windex the moment they realize they're possibly in danger. I didn't know that made me special, but I do know that others might not be able to smell it as I've had conversations about this with people who didn't know wtf I was talking about. I've heard that it might be formic acid? Not sure.

Funny because I don't normally have a very sensitive nose. And I'm not a super-taster, cilantro tastes like cilantro to me (Fresh and herbally).
