bmh Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 Maybe not but if they have not gotten anyone so far, maybe they are really shy and will continue their quiet life without bothering us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrol Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 I hope their size is a lot smaller than your picture! ....and how do we find and get rid of these nasty critters? I assume by their color that they only come out at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILLIN Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 Nice - but I'll bet the black ones are crunchier and better tasting. That is what they make Black Truffles from. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
