Can anybody identify this worm? (not computer related)?
Hi, I found this unusual creature in my fridge door, it was hanging by a thread like a spider, I picked it up from the line it was spinning and while moving it to the kitchen sink it was spinning more line downwards from my finger tip. Never seen anything like it before. It is about 1 cm long by 1.5 mm wide and segmented, it has light colored body with a black head/tail. I am in the UK. There were no grain, rice, wheat, flour products in the fridge, Only non totally sealed stuff was fresh ground coffee, apples, tomatoes, ham. see photo here: http://cid-b6839290719d42f7.photos.live.com/self.a...

more than likely the caterpillar of either Indian meal moths or Angoumois grain moth, they crawl away from their food source to pupate...meal moths are found in almost any of the pantry foods made from seed (grain)...the grain moth usually attacks whole kernels, such as dried corn or bean (decorative corn in storage is always a good start)
