My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

what is this beetle/bug

17 years ago

Infestation of oblong shaped brown beetle(?)with split stinger or tail. Under rocks, in house, in soil, everywhere. It points the tail thingy in opposite directions when distrubed. What is this thing? Scary looking.

Thanks
