I've even found them(the grubs) in my potted plants & trees, but they are the brown type and cause no damage to figs here. I know they like to gnaw on rose leaves though.


Thanks for the info... I saw a few just now ... Good to know they are harmless to figs, but they sure do like roses!

It's still there sitting on my table. 
As long as it is harmless, I won't let my siamese cat play with Katydid.
