With sperm from the male, just like us. When a female has mated she often stores the sperm in a special organ, the spermatophore, literally 'sperm carrier'. She then fertilizes each egg as she lays it. In many insects, such as bees, wasps and ants, unfertilized eggs develop into males and fertilized ones into females, so only part of the brood is actually fertilized. Then there's insects that can reproduce asexually, so no fertilization is needed at all.
