Insects

Butterflies are unable to fly if they are cold. If the surrounding temperature is below 55 degrees Fahrenheit, butterflies are rendered immobile.

I'm not great at insects, but it might be a Copestylum mexicanum. You might want to try a more reliable source than me. It would help to know where you saw it.

Call the Bomb squad! Doodlebug was an allied code name for the Fieseler FI-l03 guided missile also known as the Buzz Bomb ( from its noise) and more properly the V-I retaliation weapon I. The term has other meanings- most of them derisive- a type of gas-electric railroad car- long obsolete- and some other meanings. I have not heard it applied to real insects.

Since most acids react badly with other chemical compounds, it is less likely as the active killer compound would decompose and become either inactive or maybe even very dangerous for humans.

Bug sprays normally contain poison, often nervepoison (malathion). This because the nerves and such in insects work different than those in mammals (IE Humans, Pigs, Livestock etc).

Acid would most likely kill off bugs, but cause severe damage to anything you spray it on.

Insect Spray may still cause damage as in miscoloring on cloths and fabric.

There are many superstitions associated with a yellow butterfly. Some are that if you see a yellow butterfly, you will find happiness and if a yellow butterfly lands on you, it means a change is coming soon.

The best treatment for an insect bite is to wash the affected area with soap and water and apply a cold compress. Another option would be to visit a drug store and purchase an ointment that reduces itchiness, such as After Bite.

Males do not lay eggs, females only do and for the eggs to be viable they will need to mate with a male yes.

my 4 y/o son bite by this stupid bug and what i did i showered him with cold water and put him some CALAMINE LOTION AND SENT him to Hosp.

The Nurse given him BENADRYL & STEROIDS.

The gizzard is part of the grasshopper's digestive system. Grasshoppers' gizzards are used to help break down and digest the food they eat.

Quite a few. Termites and Pine Bark Beetles are two of them and are both considered to be serious pests.

If it is a butterfly it is not a baby it is an adult. The immature phase of butterflies and moths takes the form of caterpillars. Generally caterpillars eat leaves but different species feed on different plants.

• they are closely related to earthworms.
• they also have suckers at both ends
• they are considered worms. :P

Yes, they do!

It makes a sort of buzzz sound . but that would be a bee. so this is unquestionable.

Most insects have head, thorax, abdomen as their body segments.

I think 'life cycle' refers to an insect going from egg to adult, but metamorphosis refers to when an insect changes form. For example from a caterpillar to a butterfly.
