ours are all gone now so can't oblige with a photo but agree with Welshcob's description, they are about the size of a housefly but brownish rather than black and they run sideways very fast! Best place to find them is under the tail, I check all of ours everyday under there, just in case! Yeuch!!

Thanks for the descriptions. I'll know what to look out for now, when I get that close. Can't wait! Not.
