Please tell me we’ll get a picture of this bug (with or without maggots) at some point? Drawn or photo, I don’t care, I just want to share in the glory of your bug!
UHG! MAGGOTS!
I can’t stand em. I know they are super important and whatnot and we would all be pretty damn screwed without em but…uhg….
This summer I missed trash day once and the following week there were maggots spilling out the bottom every time I moved it.
And the smell, holy hell the smell.
Long story short, sorry to hear your bug got the ick grubs on it
Yeh, it was SUPER gross. I don’t squick out about bugs too much, but maggots are just….Ew.
Fortunately, popping the beetle in the freezer (secured in a ziplock bag) killed off the little grubbies. Now the beetle is sitting in jar of uncooked rice and we’ll see what happens.

At a certain point in your child’s life, your husband is going to be outnumbered two to one.

It’s not like this is the first time……

Yep, the raccoon skull is still in there…I really SHOULD take care of that, but it’s ,like, some kind of weird tradition now.

I could throw on out there, sure! (sans maggots!)

I have to ask, why would you keep large dead bugs?
Phoenix Belljoy
Why don’t you?
SurlyQueen
Because they’re so cool looking!

Better a dead bug in a jar than a bat with a meat thermometer stuck up it’s butt. A WTFO story, but still true.

…just exactly how big was this bug, anyway?
SurlyQueen
It’s, like, a couple of inches. Maybe three? It’s pretty beefy, for a bug.
