These bugs are very general in their feeding habits. Like all true bugs (Hemiptera) these predators have a beak. To feed, they swing their beaks up from under their bodies, sneak up to their prey and jab them with the harpoon-like tips. They inject digestive enzymes through the beak that soon render the prey immobile, after which they suck up the digested insides. from NC extension entomology

An interesting set. I tried to ID the larva but the nearest I could get was a Poplar tree beetle larva which looks similar but not the same.
its just a lady beetle larva i hope to get lucky and catch it transforming from ugly larva to pretty lady bug
