The question is, “Are Bot flies an alien species?”
I watched a documentary a few months ago about Bot fly larva
and it was an eye opener.
The Bot fly is as big as a bumble bee, but it has a very
cunning way of distributing its eggs.
I watched it grab a fly, and after putting its eggs onto it
the fly was released to do its dirty deeds.
When the fly landed, the larva attracted by the heat of the
host would drop off onto the host and burrow under the skin. The host could be
anything warm bodied, animal or human.
After six weeks it became a maggot and would eat its way out
dropping to the ground before becoming an adult fly, where the process would
repeat itself.
The worse thing was the size of the maggot and the hole left
by the Bot fly. I watched as they pulled one out of someone’s head. This time
the host was a man and not an animal.
The way the Bot fly and its larva behave tell me that they’re
in survival mode.
So, is it possible that Bot flies are an alien species?
If you watch one in action they’re very smart, they use mosquitos
and flies as their carriers, and survive by eating animal and human flesh until
their emergence, ready to repeat the cycle.
But hey I’m no fly expert, what do you think?
