Whatever it is its probably wondering how to get out of your dirty kitchen. Someone said.
The truth behind the unusual intruder left many stunned.
In the comment, many determine that this identity was created.
One person suggested that it appears that the creature is most likely a larger than normal rat-tailed maggot, which will eventually metamorphose into a drone fly.
A rat-tailed maggot, typically less than an inch long, can have a tail as long as six inches when fully extended.
This maggot is the immature stage of a drone fly, which resembles a honey bee.
The tail serves as a breathing tube when the maggot is submerged underwater, as it does not have gills.
These maggots are usually found in stagnant water sources, such as lagoons and manure pits.
Rat-tailed maggots become a nuisance when they crawl away from their breeding site to find a dry place. This is when they begin to transform into the adult stage.
Ms Deen expressed concern about where the creature had escaped to.
