• Aug. 3, 2007 - Yesterday's Learning
Yesterday we found this
in the sink.
I've seen these in both houses we've lived in but had never actually seen it moving. Usually they are just hanging on the walls, most often in the bathroom. It took us a while but we finally tracked down what it was. Turns out it's a household casebearer. Interestingly enough, I've never seen the moth, only the "baby."
Here are some interesting sites we found while looking for it.

Yes, it took us quite a while to find it. Apparently, most bug websites and guides do not have pictures of or searches for the larvae. We finally found it at that first site listed, "What's That Bug?" |
