Like Tony, all male wasps die
This post has a very good title OP
The title was the best part
Question: if I buy figs commercially, will they contain dead wasps? Or, is this something that only happens naturally?
As far as I know it isn’t actually something that happens with the figs we eat. I think it is a specific type of fig and a specific wasp that does this.
Also, the wasp in question is absolutely tiny.
By the time the fig gets to you, the wasp would long have been digested/dissolved by the plant.
Seriously, can not overstate how weird figs are.
All I know is my dog got really, really fat after we bought the house with the fig tree
Wat
Figs, dude.
