Yes. In general the larval stage eats large quantities of food in order to grow. The adult stage stays the same size.

What is an adulticide?

What do wasp larvae eat?
Wasp larvae eat the insects that the adult wasps fetch for them. Adults will go out, catch insects and either chew them there and then or take them back to the nest, butcher them and feed them to the young wasp larvae. In return, the wasps larvae then secrete a sugary solution with 500% more energy than the insects alone. This is what the adults feed upon.
Is it true that all insects have six legs?
All adult insects have six legs, although sometimes some of the legs may be modified and not look like legs. This is unusual, however.Insect larvae (e.g. caterpillars) often have more than six "legs", although they are a different type of leg.
How do insects make baby insects?
Mating of a female and a male to produce eggs that hatch into newborns is the way that insects make baby insects. The mating may be one-time, as in the case of Luna moths that lack mouthparts and live a little more than a week in order to breed and deposit orphaned eggs that will hatch into orphaned larvae termed caterpillars. It tends to be more frequent in southerly than in northerly habitats.

Do damselflies have metamorphosis?

How big is larvea?
How big are wasp larvae? Well, that depends. Adult Hymenoptera (wasps) found in North America can be of various sizes, from less than 1mm, to more than 5cm in the case of some Tarantula Hawks. And some Ichneumons can be in excess of 15cm when counting a very long ovipositor (the egg laying device). Why is this important to know? Because, to some degree there is a relationship between the size of a mature larva, and the size of the adult wasp. Many paper wasps, for example, have larva that are close to the same size as the adult, usually just slightly shorter in length than the adult. However, their larvae are often fatter than the adult. So, the short answer is from less than 1mm long, to several cm's long, depending upon the family, species and sometimes the subspecies.
