[@Thecrash20][@Lmpkio] Sounds better. Though I'm slightly curious if the Bio-Blaster "ammo" could be used to eat tiny holes in the hull of a ship, given they can eat through metal. Kind of wondering how it eats through metal given that different metals have stronger or weaker molecular bonds. I would assume it is through chemical reactions to weaken said bonds that the parasites then are able to break by eating. 

Given their tiny size it would require a fairly regular stream to eat away at things like metal armor because each would not be able to carry that much caustic chemicals to quickly eat a hole though. I see this working sort of like an acid gun except instead of firing a liquid it fires the parasites as payloads for the chemicals. Obviously softer materials would be quicker and easier to get through. If this is a fair representation of the Bio-Blaster then I am okay with this.

Exactly that was in my mind. Also I made a note on my edit that they die rather quickly after leaving the gun. So no matter what really it needs constant application on the same area or they wont be effective. Even if they could eventually eat through, lets say a ships armor. It would take longer than its worth. I was thinking like 5 seconds till death. I thought of the acid gun idea, but that seemed too aggressive for the type of Char I wanted to make. So instead he shoots feels good sleepy bugs.
