The females lay their eggs in the nostrils or eyes of sheep. The larvae hatch from their eggs inside the females and are shot into the host animals in drops of liquid. The host animals resist this.

The larvae, approximately 500 in number, nest in the nasal cavities and sinuses of the sheep, remaining there... | | |

They drill small holes in the top surface of plants’ leaves using their ovipositors and suck up liquid with their mouth parts.
