Thought this was cool and that I might share it here in the bugs section.

I think this is a caddisfly larvae. Not entirely sure but it fits the description.. except it's habitat is now my Malabar Spinach in my Laundry Room.
It's been crawling around my seedlings like a hermit crab on a tight rope.. it's really quite interesting to watch.

Here's some pictures I took with my phone.

If a tomato is a fruit, does that mean ketchup is a smoothie? What if we mix in a tiny ad?
