Tas Black Grubs

[dmc333]

Anyone else have grubs coming inside at this time of year?

For the past couple of years, as summer ends, small black grubs seem to be everywhere in the house. You get rid of them and they just keep appearing.

Any ideas on what they are and where they come from?

Is this what you are talking about?

Rave party at your place!

We used to get them at our place in Launceston but thankfully they never came inside. I used to walk out at night and the shed wall, painted white, would be completely black with hundreds of those little bastards attached.

That's them. Cheers for that.

Yeah i had massive ant issues in Dec/Jan. Brought some ant sand to spread around out the back & haven't seen an ant since.

The racism in this thread is disgusting you should be ashamed of yourselves.

And talking about setting your dogs on them... unbelievable

You can get it at Bunnings or Mitre 10, only costs about $10, mix it up & spray in one of those pressurised garden sprayers.

Have used it for about 6 years, never get the little ****ers inside now!

Yeah over here in the west we are getting these f**ken grubs and millipedes crawling up the inside walls.

Back when I was in year 11 (2003) our school (in south metropolitan Perth) had them for a month or so (was about May I think). **** they were annoying! Thankfully they mostly stayed outside though.

Worst past was all the ******* kids who, instead of lightly kicking them onto the grass and then stomping them, would stomp them on the footpath/concrete creating an oozy mess we'd have to walk on for days/weeks

They didn't come back in year 12 thank ****.
