Asked October 05, 2022, 9:35 PM EDT

I found this on top of the lawn tonight. I’m not sure if it is a grub, sod webworm or army worm.

It does not resemble any of the common lawn grubs or sod webworm. This is a type of cutworm. It does not look like one of the usual lawn pests and may have been blown there by the wind or fallen off a nearby tree.
