Sometimes men have eaten worms and grubs and roots.

What torch is yond that vainly lends his light To grubs and eyeless skulls? as I discern,

But they forgot this the fact that birds dine on grubs, that robins eat lots of worms now saturated with DDT.

And what they're doing is very interesting they're digging through the cow patties for the maggots, the grubs, the larvae of flies.

In the final larval stage, L3 , the grubs of larger species, such as Prosopocoilus giraffa , may be the size of a human finger.

But without a woodpeckers tongue it can't reach grubs that deep inside burrows so it has to use all its canny to get what it wants

So the chickens do their kind of little breakdance and they're pushing around the manure to get at the grubs, and in the process they're spreading the manure out.

I watch it sniffing the paper ceaselessly, intent as any forager that has nothing on its mind but the grubs and insects that will allow it to live another day.
