Here is a picture of the specimen. Luckily his tunnel remained fairly superficial. If it would have bored into the cavity of the pumpkin, "Wally" would have not done well and it would have surely caused his early demise. Actually I feel lucky. This little grub could have gone into the main vine and destroyed the entire plant and "Wally". Hopefully all that comes of this is an ugly scar on the pumpkin. Lesson learned: "If you see frass, go hunting for a SVB grub."
