How clean is your house?"Part of my kitchen floor are thick with dust, grease, part of a broken mug, a few mummified oven-chips, a desiccated used teabag and a couple of pieces of cutlery", says Sandettie Light Vessel Automatic. To most people, that's filth. To some of us, that's dinner. Tell us about squalid homes or obsessive cleaners.

I've often wondered about this.Surely insects that undergo complete metamorphosis are still classed as insects when they are in the pupal stage. It doesn't make sense to me for an organism to change it's class during it's lifetime. So couldn't you call a caterpillar or a maggot an insect without legs?

They doSix, in fact, plus a number of fake legs (pseudopodia). I think I am right in saying that most insect larvae have legs of sorts even though they are as useful as a chocolate teapot; bee larvae are a good example of this.
