We find these grubs in our compost pile all the time, they break down the woody bits. They are disgusting (I think,) but we give them to the chickens to eat, the chickens find them delightful.

She got her husband (who was not screaming his head off) to put one in a regular styrofoam cup, so that gives you an idea of its size. I told her to take it to the LA County Arboretum, but I'll bet you anything the whole lot of the interlopers are in the trash by now. So, any help appreciated.
