| I dug up a white grub as big as my thumb...like they eat on |
| Bridget, Those extra large grubs are the larvae of the ox or Elephant beetle (Strategus aloeus). The adults are large beetles and the males have 3 large horns on the hood-like body segment (known as the pronotum) behind their head. The following website shows photos of the male and female adults as well as the larvae and pupae. http://www.beetle-experience.c... The normal sized grubs we find in turf and gardens are larvae of June Bugs. Thanks for the question. Please stop in again soon! |
