Did you say Edible
I've seen them before. It's like OP is in a bushy area or village.
They are attracted by light.
They look harmful but may not be.

They sting but very rare. Just attracted to light.

One of those insects that are rampant during the rainy season
In our area we catch them and roast to eat but I advise you don't unless you know how to prepare it
