Just a tip: they can't turn around or fly backwards, so if you stand in front of them they're easy to get.
Small people talk about other people.
Average people talk about things
BIG PEOPLE TALK ABOUT IDEAS.

My kids do it without being asked.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Reminds me of when I got a bee bite on my lip during a nice Shabbos afternoon sleep in the summer, woke up in agony terrified of the stabbing terrorist who invaded my house, spotted the criminal bee on my pillow, all I could do is escorting him out royally on the pillow to discard it outdoors. >:( >:(  (need an furious emoji with a huuuge swollen lip)

You can trap it

Why would it be allowed to trap? Anyway taking it outside gently was the safest and easiest riddance.

Can someone do a welfare on Dan? Something must be wrong, because he didn't show up here yet to post a link to the "Pros of Cleveland, Cons of Everywhere Else" thread.

Maybe you could invite over a praying Mantis or two. I saw one eating a spotted lanternfly in my backyard.
Don't even try it.

Mitzaar. You can possibly technically grab it and if it dies, it dies.
