What do milkweed bugs eat?

In response to the previous comment (Duhh) Milkweed Assassin Bugs are widespread in the Galveston County area and they are highly beneficial insects. They eat a variety of insects including aphids, armyworms, stink bugs, houseflies, etc. Milkweed Assassin Bugs have a bright red-colored body with long black legs, black wings and long black antenna. Although most assassin bugs are slow-moving and non-aggressive, they will use their rostrum in self-defense if handled carelessly. Such bites may be rather painful to humans because the bugs inject the same salivary secretion used to dissolve the tissues of their prey. This results in the death of a small area of cells at the site of the bite. The symptoms are an intense burning sensation, often followed by a small, itchy lump that may persist for several days. However, no true toxin is involved so it is rare for the reaction to last long or to extend beyond the site of the bite. Some bites occur when the bugs are purposely handled out of curiosity, but most happen through accidental contact while gardening or working in the open. The sharp pain associated with assassin bug bites is usually enhanced by the surprise accompanying the experience. Milkweed bugs do not bite because they do not even have teeth. Duhh
