Hello,
I am inquiring to see if I can get help finding out what these species are that keeps appearing outside my home. We had foundation work done two years ago, and since then, these species have appeared near my garage and front entrance. I have spoken with Pied Piper Pest Control, and they recommended I contact you because they have not seen these before. I would like them identified, so I know how to eliminate future appearances.
Sincerely,
U. Parker

Hi Undra,
These appear to be some kind of fly larva but I won't be able to identify them from just the larva. If you would like to bring some by our office I can try to rear them out to an adult to identify them, though success is not guaranteed with rearing. If you would like to bring some by send me an email at <personal data hidden>
