Haciendo honor a su implacable nombre, este chinche\u2014junto con sus primas cercanas del g\u00e9nero <em>Rhiginia<\/em>\u2014es un ejecutor altamente especializado en la caza de milpi\u00e9s. Cazar milpi\u00e9s es un juego peligroso, ya que estos son famosos por secretar sustancias qu\u00edmicas defensivas f\u00e9tidas y altamente t\u00f3xicas, como el cianuro. Para evitar esto, los chinches asesinos <em>Rhiginia<\/em> han desarrollado una inmunidad a estas toxinas. Logran vencer las duras placas blindadas de su presa clavando su afilado estilete directamente en las vulnerables y suaves membranas que hay entre cada segmento. El chinche inyecta un c\u00f3ctel de enzimas salivales paralizantes que licua los tejidos internos del milpi\u00e9s desde adentro hacia afuera. Una vez que la presa est\u00e1 neutralizada, el chinche sorbe su comida derretida mediante un proceso llamado digesti\u00f3n extraoral.
