The farmer is proud of his grandmother's butter, always glorifying it. Our favorite grandmother is a terrible enemy of soft-bodied insects. When you're an adult, you'll eat lice, mites and cochineals. However, their breeding is one of the most exasperated birds of prey. To prevent the baby from discovering what hunger is and growing profoundly, the grandmother lays the eggs that they're going to give to her pups at the very tips of the plants where the lice are. She's going to eat them for moments before she does metamorphosis to turn them into grandmothers. Every time we see a grandmother mantangorri in the apples or in the orchard, we should bow down and show her respect. If we are able to attract the grandmothers' crew and stop to live in our vegetable garden, in the countryside, in the apple tree, without the need to use poisons.

They are, above all, carnivores, but vitamins and other ingredients must also be added for life and reproduction. They eat plant pollen, nectar, etc. In order for grandmothers to feel comfortable, it is appropriate to plant certain plants which they particularly like: carrot basaca (Daucus carota), mihilua (Foeniculum vulgare), milorrio (Achillea milefolium), ezamihilua or aneta (Anetejómatas), perejil (Petroselinum crispum).

Sometimes at the summits of the mountains, and also on the beaches, you can find flocks of grandmothers mantangorri. Apparently, they like humidity and, when hot and dry environments come, they are forced to migrate, taking advantage of the winds that bring them, in search of cooler, moist homes. As in the high mountains, they also accumulate on the beaches. As a tourist in the Pyrenean summits and on the beach of Mundaka... Very sweet facing the harsh summer. They will not have to emigrate from us, they will come from the dry lands around... Welcome, grandmothers!

Many names of the paternal grandmother have been gathered in the dictionary of Umandi: red catherine, marigorri, mantagorri grandmother, gonagorri, cotton woman, gonagorri, fly bearrigorri, canasta, gonagorri, catalina, pineapple, colewood, red grandmother, mantagorri, red mary, red mariña, hazelana. There will be more in both. An example of what has been important to the Basques at home and, in some way, to us.
