This tomato worm on my neighbor’s pepper plant is infested by wasp larvae. The larvae paralyze and eat the worm, avoiding the vital organs to keep it alive as long as possible.UpperFee2831 t1_iuc8r93 wrote

I was wondering if there were benefits to parasites. I guess it's good for our gardens to keep their numbers down. Maybe it's good for the overall ecosystem as well.
