I found a very weird brown, worm thing on my towel. It was about 3 cm long and about half a cm thick. It didn't strike me as a creature straight away, and almost looked like a piece of bark. When I prodded it, it moved slightly, but then froze. I tried lifting it off my towel with an ear-bud, and it didn't come off that easily. It didn't appear to have any antennae or segmentation, but I didn't spend that long looking at it. I also couldn't see any legs. I'm not sure if it might have been a leech? Any thoughts on what that revolting creature was would be of great help.

  1. I'd say a caterpillar


  2. Sounds like a delightfully fat  catapilar. Shame you were in a hurry to get rid of it. Um it's not sounding like a worm from here. But were are you?

  3. Sounds like a wooly bear.  They are THICK in our area right now (mid-west).  

    I don't know where else they reside.

    Did it look like this????
