This erudite beastie was found lurking on the Ipad. Having ascertained that it was not a bed bug, it got the photographic treatment under the microscope, After a quick bit of Googling it was identified as a woolly bear aka a Carpet beetle larva (aaarrgghhh!!) Now all that remains is to check that there are no others lurking around to munch their way through clothes and carpet.
Perhaps I should have fed it to my latest sundews.
This would be exactly why I would NOT want a microscope in my house, Anne. :D
ReplyDelete:) just another perspective on what is out there I suppose!
