I'm pretty sure these are good to have but I'm not 100% sure. I see a lot of them in my garden.

Hi, Just had a few minutes and looked it up on whatsthatbug.com. It is a predatory insect known as a "Hanging Thief" or "Robberfly". Eats other flying insects. It is a good one. Not harmful to pumpkins or plants. Puter

I saw one of these this morning in the patch. I didn't know what they were either. Thanks
