Does a butterfly eat other insects?
No, butterflies are strictly limited to a liquid diet. Nectar is a butterfly's main diet however it can also eat oranges, bananas, watermelons. Sweat, dung, pollen, and tree sap may also serve as a meal for a butterfly.
What is the mouth part of the butterfly uses to get food?
The proboscis. This looks like a long, curved hollow tube the butterfly uses to suck nectar from flowers. In rest, it's curled up beneath the head, barely visible in some species, but when feeding it's outstretched to the food source. Try having a butterfly land on your hand, it might lick sweat from your fingers for the salt and you can see for yourself. ^^

Do butterflies eat milk weed?
I dont believe so... They eat anything that can dissolve in water, They mostly feed on nectar from flowers but also eat tree sap, dung, pollen, or rotting fruit. They are attracted to sodium found in salt and sweat. This is why they sometimes even land on people in Butterfly Parks. Sodium as well as many other minerals is vital for the butterflies reproduction. The caterpillars of the monarch butterfly do feed on milkweed, but not the butterfly itself, I believe.
