After catching it, he found at least two white and fat ones from behind its buttocks. The parasite was hidden in the body of the hornet, so he used tweezers to perform an operation on the hornet.

Mosura then pinched out another parasite. At the same time, the hornet kept bending its body. In addition to repelling the parasite, it also tried to bite Mosura with its mouth, but Mosura didn't wear gloves the whole time and didn't feel nervous. skilled.

Mosura said that he had seen similar behavior in the bumblebee before. Although he was not an expert in this area, he still had enough knowledge to complete the matter. After the completion, he also released the hornet and fed the parasites to pets. Frogs eat.

The parasite on this hornet wasp is the female Torchus . They spend most of their lives parasitizing other insect hosts, and control the host to leave the social environment and inhabit vegetation so that they can mate with other insects of the same kind. .
