They have a defense mechanism called predator satiation. This is a process where so many swarm in at once, that it's too many for the predators to eat them all. This allows the ones that survive to continue reproducing, leaving the species strong.

Are non specific defence mechanisms more effective than specific defense mechanisms if so why?
Non specific defense mechanisms are more effective because they work against all bacteria and viruses. Examples are skin or tears. Specific defense mechanisms like antibodies work against one type of bacteria or virus. They're needed if a pathogen gets past the nonspecific defense mechanisms.
