No, "insect" is not a verb; it is primarily a noun that refers to a class of small, typically six-legged arthropods, such as ants, bees, and butterflies. In some contexts, "insect" can also be used as a verb in a colloquial sense, meaning to bug or annoy someone, but this usage is very rare and not widely recognized.
