Why you don't see fireflies during the day?

Answer 1

Because they're nocturnal insects, fireflies [Lampyridae family] tend not to come out during the day. They prefer the pollen and the insects that they find at night. Additionlly, they use their lighted abdomens as part of their mating procedure. The abdomen may be lighted during the day, but not sufficiently visible or attractive to the opposite lightning bug sex.

Answer 2

Because they hide from their predators during the day. They usually hide inside bushes or in the grass, especially along streams in the woods.

Actually, you can see them in the day. It is just that most people don't know what they look like in the day. They are orange or yellow and black and somewhat elongated. They are not the most attractive looking of insects. When it is almost dark, that is when their "lights" come on, and most people pay more attention to the light than to the rest of the insect.

Answer 3

Because their body chemistry responds to night-time lighting and living, fireflies or lightning bugs [Lampyridaefamily] tend not to be seen during the day. During the day, they try to hide in the grasses of lawns, meadows and woods. During the night, they come out to communicate, feed and mate.

Answer 4

In the grassy parts of woods and along streams, and in lawns and meadows is where fireflies [Lampyridaefamly] spend their days. They hide around plant body parts in order to survive daytime predators. At night fireflies themselves become eaters of pollen and predators of other night-time insects.

Answer 5

Because insects usually come out at night.
