'Nuf said.Ok, one more thing. What in the world is this rotten snot rocket looking thing that I found writhing by my okra. What damage could it have caused and do I need to start looking for eggs or something?

ribbit - you have found either a japanese, or june beetle grub. It overwinters in the ground, feeding on the roots of grass. If you have applied any kind of chemicals recently, then the rainfall probably let it penetrate the earth - which brought this thing to the surface.
ReplyDeleteYou know, last night I put down some fire ant killer not far from the beds. It hasn't rained since then, but you're right. That's exactly what it looks like. Odd that it was able to crawl up a 12 inch bed.
ReplyDeleteEwwww....
ReplyDeleteThat's a nasty little sucker! Nice closeup photo though!
