“Does anyone know what this might be?” “I found two stacks of these… in my daughters’ room.”

Picture this: you are looking through a Facebook group about homemaking and cleaning that you like, and then you come across a post that catches your attention. A person who rents a house shared a photo of two strange piles of brown material that appeared unexpectedly. It’s not just regular brown stuff—it looks like coffee grounds but feels like shells. Oh no, what a confusing situation!

What should a homeowner who is curious do? They asked the community for assistance, and that’s precisely what this homeowner did. The post received an impressive 150,000 reactions and more than 7,000 comments. Can you imagine? It was as if everyone in the group came together to solve this puzzle and offer important ideas.

Picture the homeowner’s shock when pest control companies were also unaware. Even the experts were confused!
But things got more complicated. Some homeowners even thought it looked like the shells of fly larvae. Yes, that’s correct—shells from fly larvae. The imagination went wild, and this post became a thrilling journey of guessing and mystery. And can you believe it? The homeowner kept sharing updates at every change or development.

It wasn’t termites, not cockroaches, and certainly not mouse waste. ¿Murciélagos? They were considered very improbable. With each new version, the tension was increasing.
