Most that come out of my bowls end up getting decapitated or super glued into place.

Yeah, I felt a wet gooey splat on my hands and got gut spray all over my visor about 45 minutes before I took this picture...

I've had that happen to me. Unfortunately, the little guy appeared as I was running stock through the Saw Stop and it tripped the brake. Dumbest reason ever to have to replace a brake and blade. Also, I had a group of bees show up as I was resawing some stock once, that was certainly unexpected.
I had a huge nasty grub poke its head out of a piece of mesquite once. I had to use needle-nose pliers to pull it out. It was almost as big around as my little finger, but hard to tell how long, since I had cut its tail off. Ick.
Yup - have experienced that a few times! Even had to stop once to clean off my visor!

Only thing worse than getting splattered by a grub is biting into an apple and seeing half the worm!
Just one of the things that keeps turning interesting. I usually just see half of one. Large black ants running around everytime you stop the lathe is kind of fun too. Kind of like "whack-an-ant".
Here you can have them fried or raw. These are worms from the Black Palm tree.
A little barbecue sauce and I bet those are really tasty!

I served about a year in New Guinea while in the Dutch Navy, up there the native people would cut down small Tapioca trees and left it laying down for a couple of weeks, then split it open to remove and eat the large worms that would be found in the soft inside of the tree, a good source of protein that was very scarce in their diet of mostly roots and tubers.
Big grubs/worms are eaten in more places, just like these

Have fun and take care
I had a grub come out of some mesquite I was working on ... and the bees + circular saw thing REALLY tests your woodworker resolve to resist the natural panic/run instinct in the middle of a spinning blade act ...
Hitting a colony of termites is the worst you can hit.I half way killed myself trying to kill all of the ones that went flying around my shop.You only need one to get away in the shop and then no shop.Had to spray almost everything in the shop and stay out for two days.
