    Oh, cool! When you said parasitic wasp my brain immediately pictured a tarantula hawk wasp.

      The parasitic ones (well, parasitoid since they live free as adults) are very different, sometimes literally microscopic, and never harmful to humans AFAIK.

      Gruesomely fascinating and widely studied, though. Relevant recent XKCD.
