The female botfly glues her eggs onto the abdomen of a captured mosquito or other common fly. When the carrier insect lands on a human, the larva, or bot, hatches, burrows into the skin, and positions itself head down to feed, breathing through caudal respiratory spiracles.
Bot fly larvae develop within the eggs, but remain on the vector until it takes a blood meal from a mammalian or avian host. Newly-emerged bot fly larvae then penetrate the host's tissue. The larvae feed in a subdermal cavity for 5-10 weeks, breathing through a hole in the host's skin. Mature larvae drop to the ground and pupate in the environment.
