What the heck is this creature?!?

[TheSeventeenth]

AIBU to be freaked out by this.

We have found 3 of these in random places on our upstairs carpet over the last few days. They are a beige/green colour about 1cm across, 0.5 deep and 2cm long with a little black tail thing. Do I need to burn down my house?

Stock it in a pot and see what it turns into!

Someone posted on a Facebook village group near here asking about these same creatures today. Maybe 23rd October is the date they invade people's houses ready for takeover! Probably something to do with the sudden drop in temperature outside.

Yeah, I think just to be on the safe side, burn down the house. It is nearly Halloween, afterall. 🎃

Aww volu thing looks like a little bee.

Is there anything MNers don’t know? 😲

Don't burn down the house. Keep it. It might stop signs of ageing. No wrinkles, not sagging, not even gummy knees!
