Plant juices are what the bordered plant bug eats.
Specifically, a bordered plant bug (Largidae family) has piercing, sucking mouthparts. It particularly is interested in a plant's flowers and fruits as the source of juices. It will try out just about any plant - fruit, herb, vegetable, weed, woody - in its path even though it particularly favors asters, blueberries, milkweed, oak and wax myrtle.

∙ 6y agoPraying mantis, some Spiders and wheel bugs are bugs that eat bordered plant bugs. The insects in question (Largus californicus) have body art that warns potential predators of unpleasant smells, tastes and textures. The above-mentioned predators in the Mantodea, Araneae and Hemiptera orders manage to overcome the aversion, just as they do regarding the equally aposematic boxelder bug (Boisea trivittata).
