Caddisfly Bandages on the Way

Thanks to Meredith for the quick note and link!

Theaux,
Greetings! I hope that you are well. My father forwarded this article to me and asked me to send it to you. It’s about some researchers who recently made a very cool discovery about caddis fly larvae.

Some compelling words from the article from laboratoryequipment.com titled;
Fly Glue Creates Bioadhesive:

Like silkworm moths, butterflies and spiders, caddisfly larvae spin silk, but they do so underwater instead on dry land. Now, University of Utah researchers have discovered why the fly’s silk is sticky when wet and how that may make it valuable as an adhesive tape during surgery.
