    Sorry, the idea of a creature that lays its eggs in other creatures
    and uses them distructively to incubate them was used long ago by a
    fellow named E. Coli.  Mr. Coli has been using this idea for
    millions of years now.  Admittedly he is not an alien, but you don't
    see him every day.

Mr. Coli?  With a first name like Escherina?  E. Coli is a not only a
public-spirited symbiote instead of a parasite, but is a plant of the
class schizomycetes, and couldn't lay an egg if life depended on it.

She is going to have a word with one of her Mexican cousins about the
next time you drink the water in Tijuana.
