First, an adult Tarantula Hawk will go hunting for a Tarantula in it's burrow.

Once it finds the burrow, it will drag the Tarantula out of it's burrow and inject a paralyzing venom into it. When the Tarantula is paralyzed, it will be taken into burrow made by the wasp and a single egg will be laid on the Tarantula. The wasp will leave. When the egg hatches, the larvae will feed on the living Tarantula. The larvae will eventually enter the inside of the Tarantula, consuming it from the inside out. While it does this, it has to avoid any major organs in the Tarantula so that it's food doesn't die. The Tarantula Hawk will become an adult (after the pupa stage) and leave. That is the cycle for the Tarantula Hawk.
