I have many of these in my house, they are a larvae of some kind, but I don't know what they become.

They are just under a centimetre long, stick to the wall at one end and wriggle like a caterpillar to move.

Anyone know what it is?

Thanks

I believe it is a case moth larvae. They come in many forms and sometimes will add sticks etc to the outside of the silk cocoon.

Many thanks.

With that info I was then able to find this... http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/592071-how-to-get-rid-of-case-bearing-moth-larvae/

Thanks! I get them regularly and have been wondering for five years!

Thanks for that. I used to have them in my apartment and never knew what they were. Learned something today.

Put the thing in a container and wait a week/month. Observe the result.

I have waves of these as well....they usually gather up together in corners or tight spots. Others just park and dangle straight from the ceiling.
