One of our gardeners sent me this image tonight, and I’ve bumped it to the front of the queue of lovely images for the blog. I’ve done this, because I don’t know what they are, and I hope someone else might.
We’re looking at some seedlings that are about to be transplanted, and the compost has a lot of the white objects on the surface.
They look like eggs of some sort, but they aren’t slugs, snails, earwigs or vine weevil. I wondered whether they were ant pupae, but they don’t look to be quite the right shape.
Any ideas?
All suggestions gratefully received.

I am sorry, but I really do not recognize them.

I have seen maggots, but eggs do not last long before hatching. I suppose they could look like that. It suits the family of insect.

House fly eggs look similar to these, just a stab in the dark.

Good stab, Natalie, I think. Blow fly and other similar flies also have the same kind of eggs – so yours was a very good steer. Thanks!
