It's on the cactuses of the Opuntia spp that the cochineal insect [Dactylopius coccus] feeds. It particularly favors Opuntia fica-indica, whose common name is barbary or Indian fig cactus. The insect keeps competitors from feeding on prickly pear moisture and nutrients by making carminic acid. The acid may be taken out of the insect's body and eggs, for the making of carmine or cochineal dye.

Introducing a chemical to kill an insect population can have an impact on humans in many different ways. It could pollute our air, and also kill another insect that we were not intending on killing. But mainly because it can hurt the plants and animals that help us in our every day lives. For example; it could kill a tree leading us with less oxygen sources and wood to use for materials. Or certain plants used for medicines. Or the decomposers that help decompose and keep our earth a cleaner place. These are simply some of the impacts on humans of introducing a chemical to kill an insect population.
