    Default What are these?

    Guys,

    I have two questions:

    I seen these worm looking things in a garage. They all seem dead. What exactly are they?

    Also, the poured concrete foundation wall (also in the garage) seem to have some portion of the surface forming a powder on the slab like it was sanded. Why?

    Seriously, the dead "worm-like" creatures on the garage floor appear to be dead milipedes.
