User's notes

I have seen three or four of these in the pat fortnight but getting clear images has proven to be very difficult. They appear to construct their 'house' from whatever is available, so the colours look quite different from one individual to the next. Note that the claw of this individual is penetrating the lerp case.

They are actually pincers biting into the scale insect
