The red background is actually the underside of a child's bicycle seat, that I had pulled off to clean and found this female and her eggs.

Thank goodness; what a find. Really looks horrifying. Good thing the kids did not jump on the bike for a ride.

Glad you found it before the child got on the bike. Great capture Dennis. ~
