The following is based on Fallout Tactics and some details might contradict canon.

Boom Bug is a throwing weapon in Fallout Tactics.

Description: A giant mutant strain of ladybug with unstable body chemistry. Explodes when agitated, disturbed, angry or bored.

[edit] Note

Although Boombugs are generally inferior to regular frag grenades, a character with good throw and high AP count might spam them quite effectively due to low AP cost of single throw. This could be potentially devastating in close quarters, particularly so in confines of Mardin caves, where beastlords are conveniently carrying them in abundance.
