What the bloody hell is this creature in my outhouse?? [pic]

[CountryMummy1]

Just been outside the feed the cat who has his food in the outhouse. There, hanging from the old pipework are 3 absolutely huge cocoons. They are hideous! Black and more than 4 inches long. They weren't there yesterday. What the hell is going to come out? AIBU to be very worried?

Yes Moreisnnogedag apparently the move. Which îs why they aren't fungus.

I prefer fungus now

We don't know what it is - so let's.........cut it in half, burn it, burn the shed, destroy it, pour petrol on it and set fire to the whole thing, break it.

Niiiiiiiice

Fungus.

OP... ARE YOU DEAD?

Why are the experts spelling mould as mold?

If it was a fungus - would it grow so quickly?

I've sent the photo to my Aunt who is a moth expert and also knows lots about fungus. Will report back!

But I reckon it was laid by

Is mold an Amercan spelling ?
OP is busy, having her photo taken for the press and planning what to wear on Good Morning tomorrow.

Hmmm. No OP for a while, it was Midlands. I better review the local news for indications of mysterious alien invaders.

It may have been growing a while before becoming very noticeable

I specifically went off app in order to view the pictures. I am impressed with op's bravery of putting her hand near it.
I think the hairspray flame thrower would be the best option. If it's a moth cocoon, well too bad, it was a silly place to put it!

Where is the cat???
A1 closed due to accident for those wishing to evacuate the Midlands!

Haven't read the whole thread yet, sorry. Do you live anywhere near an airport?

Is mold an Amercan spelling ?

Mutated Otherworld Life-sucking Demon. MOLD

Does the op have pre teens? If so, count them. If any are missing I think I have the answer. This looks like the pupation of a previously p!easant pre-teen, and it will shortly erupt furiously and spawn a teenager. Don't touch it, or even try to communicate with it any level for the next 5 years!

WTAF? I can never unsee that now. :(

Err Is it the MN hive mind?

If you leave cat food in the out house you'll have furry friends of the rat variety too before long!

Don't know what's making me feel worse, the op's mould cocoon or BMW's moss ball of tiny spiders

The thing is, it's not going to change now is it, this is its final form. So the issue is whether or not it can be removed?

Or does it continue to grow??

Findingmyfeet: Exactly they same thing appeared in my garage about a year ago. It ended up killing me.

You just turned this into a real Zombie thread

Arf at the pre-teen pupa dementedma

Where is the OP?

Doesn't the Alfred's cake thingy eat wood? That's not on wood?

wasn't there something like that in Star Trek once?
