A lightning bug is a nocturnal beetle common in warm regions having luminescent abdominal organs. Just so you know lightning bugs also fly in the morning they just don't light up.
Yes you can. If you tip the bottle upside down so the opening is at the bottom it's easier to catch the bugs since their instinct is to go upwards not downwards to get out.
There is 1017018 bugs known to man so far.
because that is the bugs shelter and environment
Yes, a lightning bug, or as we call it in Tennessee, a fire fly, is a beetle, like a lady bug, which is also a beetle. They are in different families, but in the same order (beetles, Coleoptera). Lady beetles (or lady bugs, if you wish) are in the Coccinellidae family and lightning bugs are in the Lampyridae family.
Eat up the bugs ^^
Yes, and the larva are referred to as glow worms. Not all lightning bugs produce light but all larva do and this light is one of the most efficient in producing energy with very little waste. The light is thought to attract mates but can also be used to attract other lightning bugs and the one will eat the other.
Fireflies do not eat pollen, so they are not attracted by it.
It wasn't dealt with. It caused many fires. That is why the lightning rod was so important.
Because so many rich people in Chicago :-)
there are aproxamentaly 57927 lady bugs left on earth so dont kill them
Communicate, eat and make mating arrangements are the activities of lightning bugs [Lampyridae family] during the night. They tend to be nocturnal. So they communicate and organize their mating by way of their glowing abdomens and their flight patterns. Adult fireflies don't have to eat. But those that do prefer the pollen and the insects that are available once the sun goes down.
