Hi all,

I dug up these revolting things today. They looked like one inch
white maggots but with red legs at the front. Does anyone know what
they were and if they're harmful or useful? I'm afraid that I killed
them cos they were so utterly disgusting so I hope they're not
gardeners friend material. I also found some mummified looking large
dark pink beetles. Are the two related I wonder?

Any help appreciated,

Andy
