while digging out my bin, I kept turning up these very large - 1 1/2 inch x 1 inch wide, gray white grubs. As the little boy next door said - it has really big chompers! What are these? The upside is the boys(4 of them) next door thought the compost pile was a wonderful adventure and Alix ran in the house, came back with a plastic box and took 3 of them to science class. I flipped most them - the grubs, not the boys
, out into the garden for the birds. I have never seen this kind of grub - just the little white lawn ones.
This was a really neat experience - minus the grubs. The boys thought that compost was so coool. Tried to keep it simple - b/c it really is! The four year old kept saying - I want worms, do you have any worms. They got to see the new pile begin as well as see and touch and smell the finished goods. Thanks - piegirl
