Best Answer

What: Mosquitoes (mainly female), fleas, locusts, lice, bees, kissing bugs

Why: Female mosquitoes use human blood to fertilize their eggs, and can transmit diseases such as malaria and West Nile Virus. Fleas caused the Medieval Black Plague, and locusts can damage a farmer's crops. Lice can nest in human hair and cause severe itching. Bees, especially killer bees, will sting a human being when threatened and cause painful welts. Kissing bugs will bite around the soft tissue of the lips and eyes, possibly inflicting Chaga's disease.
