Stupidest Things Done By Yeerks

What are the stupidest things done by the Yeerks?

Esplin 9466 The Greater in the Hork-Bajir Chronicles: Letting go of his Hork-Bajir host before finishing his infesting of Aldea, thus enabling his former host to yank him out.

That's not stupid. It's necessary. He had to let go of one brain to get to the other. Yeerks are not so long that they can envelop a good portion of one brain before disconnecting from another. He just didn't expect the "dumb" Hork to think of something like that.

The fact that he did it was kinda stupid.  He didn't have to.  He could have waited, or had his host crippled before leaving it.

I have something for what they didn't do.  When they found out about the peace movement, they could have put new yeerks in hosts to find out the peace movement members.  The hosts memories would have evidence of their betrayal and the new yeerks would report it to V3.

Tom: Failing to investigate Jake's very odd behavior, such as eating like a maniac (book 6), or receiving calls late at night (book 45).

Visser 1: Failing to put cameras in the escape pod she earmarked for the Animorphs to use.

Visser 4: Not using the Time Matrix to undo his defeat on Leera.
