I was just curious, does anybody know what kind of insect the mousie grub will grow into if left to hatch?  Thanks.

I knew a guy that used to pop one between his gum and lower lip to warm it up before hooking it. :sick:

I wonder if farming them keeps them cleaner,if they are farmed in waste,they would be a hazard to all that handlethem....Right?
