What is this?
Every time I pull up a weed, I seem to find one of these guys underneath. They're a bit over an inch long, and have a hard red shell. I suspect it's some sort of grub or larvae, but I'm curious how worried I should be, since our soil seems to have reached saturation levels on these dudes. Any ideas?

No idea, but I have these too. Fortunately, my neighbor's sister is a entomologist. I just e-mailed her the link to your site. Maybe she can help!
