Maybugs?
This morning I removed another large beetle from daughters bedroom. I think they are Maybugs ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cockchafer ) This is the 6th we've removed from the bedroom in a week (or maybe just the same one that's really keen? :-)). She isn't a great fan of them being in her room (I've tried telling her they are rare - she seems keen to make them even rarer - any idea where the hell they might be coming from?? It's always that one room - never seen one anywhere else in the house. She does have a chimney in the room that has a vent without a grill on. I did find mention of them coming down chimneys - anyone know if that's really likely? Why the hell would they do that? Yes, I know, I'll fit an fly screen to the vent and see, but I'm struggling to believe that's actually where they are coming from (saying that, I can't see where else so...) Never had them before - and I've been looking for a roundtuit for 4 years to sort out the vent ;-) Darren |
