ANSWER:

True, Insect in cocoon is killed before reeling the silk.

EXPLANATION:

The insects (larva) are boiled alive while they are in cocoon to produce raw silk. The heat from the boiling water kills the skill worm inside the cocoon and the cocoon is being untangled easily because of the boiling water.

The cocoon is a thread that is made of raw silk. The Insects are been killed at an early stage as the adult silkworm coming out of cocoon cannot be used for making silk.
