Question June Bugs

I live in deep south Texas and would like to know if it is safe for my dragons to eat what we call "June Bugs" which are in abundance right now? They are actually grub worms which have matured into adults but I dont know the scientific name for them. They are only available a short time during the year and are attracted to light sources at night. They do have an outer sort of shell, brown in color, that sort of crunches and they fly. Both of my dragons really like them. If anyone has any information on them, I would like to know so I wont give them something to cause them harm.

June bugs should be okay for adults but I would hesitate for younger beardies because of their outer shell and the risk for impaction. My other concern is feeding any bugs from outside because there is always the risk of some sort of pesticide being ingested by your dragon.
