JP Gagnon in Vernon, BC took this photo of a friend with 2″ lobes whose mother made them these great clear plugs with a big insect encased inside them. How many mothers are that supportive?

Hi from Australia!!!!
I’m Jordan’s Mom and yes I did make the plugs for Jord. I just wanted to make it clear that I do no ever kill bugs or anything else I make plugs out of. Everything I do make the plugs out of had either died natural or its a shell of a bug such as the cicadas. I make Jord plugs because I always see the same old plugs that everyone else has and because he is an individual he should wear something thats individual. Alot of time goes into making these plugs and you’ll never find two pair the same which is pretty cool. Hope everyone back in Canada is good and I miss it heaps, Cheers

It is in fact a Cicada. The larval form of the cicadas lives underground, feeding on the roots of trees. the Cicada then comes out of the ground and sheds its exoskeleton, exposing its wings. What is inside the gauge is the shed of the cicada. Come on people.
