Those of you know know me, know how I feel about grasshoppers.
It’s completely gross, but totally cool that Sean found some Gordian Worms on his walk today.

A little privacy please! (Ewwwwww!)
They are a beneficial parasite because they eat crickets, grasshoppers, cockroaches, beetles and snails. They are not harmful to humans or pets.
I’ve never seen or heard of them before, but if they do away with bugs that have an exoskeleton and creepy legs, they’re fine with me!
And now, just to erase that image from your brain:
