[QUOTE="inyati13, post: 1107832, member: 17767"] This brought to mind the following: [i]The antlion larva is often called "doodlebug" in North America because of the odd winding, spiralling trails it leaves in the sand while looking for a good location to build its trap, as these trails look like someone has doodled in the sand.[/i] In grade school, we fished for doodlebugs. You find their small holes where they set their trap for ants. Put a hay straw down the hole. The doodlebug thinks it is an ant and grabs the straw with its mandibles. If you jerk, you can pull the doodlebug to the surface. They are odd looking larvae with a white body and big jaws. Got to be quick to set the hook. :D ;-) [/QUOTE]
