Beneficial insects are a biological control for an organic garden or orchard. They are natural enemies of the garden pests. Injurious insects like aphids, mites, cutworms, and mealy bugs. Beneficial insects have been used in gardening since the late 1800's
Some of the most common beneficial insects are the spined soldier bug, lacewing, lady bug, nematodes, mason bee, parasitic gall-midges, mealy bug destroyer, minute pirate bug, and redworms.
Many perform valued services like pollination and pest control
Bees are beneficial as pollinators, facilitating propagation and fruit production for many plants. While some bees are predatory or parasitic, killing pest insects.
Think of beneficial insects like this simple story:
A Bird eats a insect. The bird uses the carbon from insect to make muscle tissue. This makes the bird stronger in order to survive. Once the bird dies, a fly will lay maggots on the bird, in which helps break down the bird's body. Carbon atoms will be released into the ground and be absorbed by a apple tree. Humans and animals will consume the apple.
Bugs (insects) perform three major functions:
1) provide food for larger animals in the food chain, including amphibians, mammals, and fish
2) work to consume or break down dead organic material so that it reenters the nutrient cycle
3) check the overpopulation of other small animals (Spiders, arthropods) and some plants
Bees could give us candy.Ants eat the food on the floor and keep the environment.
fertilizing soil
they eat unwanted insects
Dont know
In the dirt.
By eating insects that kill or damage trees
Venus Flytraps help by controlling the number of insects in the world, by eating them.
most of people think stink bug are good but they aren't they eat all the fields and theydon't help the environment
Yes, they keep populations of insects that are harmful to trees in check
By eating unwanted weeds and fertilising with their manure.
Well harmfull insects are those that do damage to crops and helpfull insects are insects that help crops by either A:helping in the pollination of the crop or B: by eating or driving out those insects that are harmfull to the crops
maybe get rid of some nasty insects that try to hurt our environment!
yes they are useful in eating away dead, decaying animals which could otherwise spread diseases like rabies etc.
Dragonflies help to eliminate more prolific bugs from the environment. Mosquitoes and flies are the primary insects eaten by dragonflies.
