That was freaky for sure. I noticed a few misshapen figs that were soft on touch (they should be hard at that size). Under a closer investigation I saw a dark dot that looked like an entry point when an egg is deposited. When I cut opened the fig, I found a white worm (only one), alive and kicking. What was really freaky, when I moved it onto a plastic lid, it started jumping when I was touching it!! It would fly about 2-3 inches away and keep crawling further. I took a video, will try to post it.
This is the first year I see something like that.
Any identification and how to deal with those buggers?
I hope this is just one off ...
