Ash worms

In China's Sichuan-Dian, Huguang and Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas, there is a small insect that can extract natural ash, so people call them ash worms. Every year in March and April is the season of breeding offspring, and female ash worms will wrap tens of thousands of eggs in a hard shell to prevent their eggs from becoming the meal of other predators, like a human nursery. The newly hatched ash worms are very thin, there is no natural weapon to poke through the hard shell, if they can't get out, they will face the fate of premature death.

weevil

Over the course of long evolution, in order to maintain the continuation of the population, ash worms surprisingly chose to cooperate with the natural enemy weevil, inviting the weevil to lay eggs in their own "nursery". The larval of the weevil is known for its fondness to eat ash eggs that are rich in sugar and protein. Didn't the weevil lure the wolf into the house and kill itself? The sophistication of nature is amazing, and the weevils seem to have made a contract with the ash worms, laying only one egg in each ash worm's "nursery". When the weevil larvae can become strong enough after eating about a quarter of the ash eggs in the "nursery", it will use its long, long, long sword-like kiss to pierce a hole in the hard shell of the "nursery", and the remaining ash larvae can crawl out of the shell along the hole and get a chance to survive.
