hugocnx Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Got quite some of these maggets in my compost heap. Thai call them 'boong', but what are these and moreover what do they become later on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G Rex Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 It is a beetle larva - probably some form of scarab - we call them Christmas beetles in Australia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooked Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Some of us quite like the name of this beast: cockchafer. Can cause immense damage to the roots of crops and lawns but despite seeing one occasionally in the garden we haven't had any problems thus far.
