Probably one of those humanoids... more subtle, but just as deadly.

We have a type of wasp here at the landfill called a Tarantula Wasp. It lays it's eggs inside the spider. When they hatch, they eat their way out. Ah, Nature at it's finest!

What the article failed to mention is that after the wasp has walked the prey to it's nest, the wasp takes a refreshment break. It bites off the antennas of the roach and sucks the juice out of them.

I saw a "nature" show on this a few years back and it is morbidly fascinating.

The mud dabber wasp here in Florida builds a nice big mud hut in the inside of peoples
garages under tables basically anywhere dry. If you break open one of the mud nests
there are bunches of different spiders inside still alive but paralyzed it freaks alot of
newcomers out, they think it is some kind of spider cocoon. They baby wasp that is
in there incubating eats the spiders that are still alive(no need for refrigeration) can
you say fresh!! and then hatches. I saw someone sit at a park bench and I guess
they broke the nest with their leg they looked down and you should have seen the
look on his face when he saw there were 10 spiders on his leg!! He jumped up quick!!
