What is this??

Found these things under a cloths that you use to clean the floors. Some of them were damp.

The pointy end is their head I think, they move that forward first when they go around and they have some kind of tounge that they put out of their mouth on a regular basis.

What could have layed their eggs in there? I first thought a housefly, but then it doesn´t look like the housefly larvae/maggot on google.

Do you know what this is?

The only insect that is around the dirty cloths is a housefly, they seem to like staying on them, eating the dirt or something.

This peace of apple is less than 10mm wide

These may be dead, have not moved

The small one es I think eating from the apple

They look like fly maggots. The ones that appear dead may very well be pupae.

Thank you for your answer!

What do you think they would eat?

May be I can keep them and feed the mantis them as flies?

Just keep feeding them apple if that's what they're into.

I loved to know what they turn into. I think they will turn into some type of fly. They sort of look like Dermestidae larvae (skin beetle) but they lack the 3 pairs of thoracic legs. My money's on fly

I do not recognize the species (you are in Iceland so why should I lol), but if I were to put money on anything, I would put it on fly maggots. Fly maggots take a variety of forms, they are not always soft and white. The main reason I think they are maggots is because one of them pupated and I dont see any visible legs. If they were beetle larvae, there would be 6 legs near the front.
