The wireworms are a large group of parasites, also known as hairy snakes or capillary nematodes, which have their own separate order of wireworms in the Zoological Classification, under which a **** contains about 250-300 species of wireworms. Adult nematodes live mainly in rivers, ponds or small ditches, and the longest can reach 1 meter in length, but are very small.

The wireworms are dioecious, and the females often lay their eggs near rivers, which are mostly eaten by arthropods such as praying mantis and locusts, where they develop and grow inside their bodies. If humans accidentally eat these eggs, they can also parasitize our digestive tract, and generally infect the human body may cause wireworm disease, which occurs mostly in women's bodies. Iron threadworms appear in the most places or arthropods, living in the countryside will often see the dead mantis and locusts on the body, crawling out of the long, thin bugs, most of them are iron threadworms, at this time has almost become an adult.

The wireworms grow inside the mantis, and we know that the parasitic relationship is "freeloading", the wireworms will consume the nutrients in the mantis's body, and when the wireworms grow to a certain size, they will entice the mantis to look for water, and then the mantis will drown, and then the wireworms will come out of the mantis's stomach and return to the water. return to the water. The wireworms only go back to parasitize the mantis in the larval stage, but when they become adults, they return to the water source to look for their "other half". Therefore, if you see praying mantis swimming around in the water, they are not drinking water or crossing the river, but are actually being controlled by wireworms. So if you find the carcasses of these arthropods in a river, the river is usually infested with wireworms. Of course we can also catch praying mantises and put them in the water, which may surprise you after a while.

In fact, mantises infected with wireworms, especially in the later stages of the disease, are largely visible from their appearance, with even the thin males having a large belly and a rise in food intake. However, due to the presence of nematodes in the body, the mantis is not very active. And because of the presence of the wireworms, praying mantis will show phototropism, and they will also stay on the front of the leaves in the hot summer.

The human body is also infected with wireworms, and the only thing we have to pay attention to is to stay away from contaminated water, not to mention drinking it. At the same time the food should try to go to eat cooked to avoid raw food, will probability to avoid iron worm parasites. At the same time living in rural areas of the partners, but also must pay attention to less go to unclean places wild bathing, especially women friends.
