Dubba 72 Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 Can you get a clear pic of the adult beetle? What situation are they in and where exactly found? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ferretess 230 Posted August 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 (edited) That's the clearest one she can , she lives alone and taking picture talking to me and screaming at same time lol.. I thought they were cockroachs to begin with but wrong colour and don't look like any pictures on the net, they are in her kitchen she noticed one on kitchen floor it run under cooker she pulled out cooker and there loads under it .

hawki 1,433 Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 the first pic looks like moth larvae Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dubba 72 Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 Difficult to Id from the photos. How big are they? Are they just a solid colour or is there a white/grey in the middle? If you wanted to post me some I'd be able to ID just pm me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnipper 6,546 Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 I dunno what their called but when you buy tubs of crickets from petshops they have them larvae and beetles in with them and I'm guessing they live off the bran? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ferret333 747 Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 hello, the beetles are called darkling beetles, there the adult form of mealworms you buy for reptiles, the black fluffy thing comes in boxes of livefood such as crickets. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
