Our Burstner Nexxo t660 was bought new in February 2010. The following June I was tiring of my wife saying that she heard a noise' in the showeroom and she mentioned it again so I decided to investigate. This is what I found in the showeroom forced ventilation unit accessed from outside. This 'thing' survived a bitter cold Scottish winter and a swealtering Portuguese summer without food. Can anyone identify it?

There should be a picture attached.

Hi.
Do not know what they are,but there are plenty here at our place,they appear to have "Air Ride" suspension,as they bob up and down when being moved on!. One came to an untimely end,when it got caught up in a ball of Sassys fur,so,if ever you are in Portugal,and you want to keep these criters away from your M/home,PM. us and we will sell you enough fur not only to keep yourselves safe in your m/home,but to knit another dog. Are well,"Sass,time for grooming again"LOL.
Jented.
PS. The "Hair of the Dog",does not stop hangovers!LOL.
PPS. Not Dung beetle,more of a "That made you Jump!!" Beetle.

Not as far as I know although that side has usually been against the dung when I have seen them here in Spain

The picture shows the bug on a Lidl Hygeine Wipe and it got stuck on it it sounded like it was velcro being ripped apart as it tried to move. We flippedf it over to reveal a red furry underside.
