Insects

a ladybug i think

Yes,that is a form or lice.

Savlon Cream or E45 cream. Cools the stings and makes the swelling go down.

yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A vector is an animal or insect that serves as an intermediate means of transporting infection.

punch em in the head and spit on their face

Rubbing Alcohol or an antiseptic

"The best precaution against chigger bites is simply taking a warm soapy bath with plenty of scrubbing as soon as possible after exposure. If you bathe at once, while the chiggers are still running over your body, you can wash them off before they bite. A bath will also remove any attached and feeding chiggers before you start to feel the itch. Warm soapy water is all that is necessary to remove and kill chiggers. There is no need, and it is rather dangerous, to apply household products such as kerosene, turpentine, ammonia, alcohol, gasoline, salt or dry cleaning fluid. Don't do it. Attached chiggers are removed by even the lightest rubbing. If you are away from civilization, you can remove attached chiggers before they do much damage by frequently rubbing down with a towel or a cloth. What can you do to alleviate suffering if these precautions fail? Lotions will relive the itching somewhat, but no substance is completely effective. The only ultimate cure is time, since there is nothing you can do to dislodge the chigger's feeding tube, the true cause of your itch. You must simply wait until your body breaks down and absorbs the foreign object. In the meantime, local anesthetics such as benzocaine, camphor-phenol and ammonium hydroxide may provide you with several hours of comfort at a stretch. Over-the-counter creams can also help. In rare cases, some people are allergic to chigger bites and require prescription medications from their doctor." this is from: http://mdc.mo.gov/nathis/arthopo/chiggers/

You need to go to either the hospital or doctors office and get this insect out as soon as possible. What if they make a nest and have babies, then you have a colony of insects in your ear. Gross. Dont delay go ASAP. One thing I've heard of is going into a dark room and holding up a flashlight to the ear to draw the insect out.

Butterflies

Yes they exist in Hawaii.

Yes, there are. Its just that some of them have hatching seasons and you may haven't noticed them during your visit to Cancun. For example, Winter is the best season to find a bug-free Cancun, as mosquitoes, ants, bedbugs, flies and others are usually hibernating.

There are no insects that live in the Himalaya other than the ones that are native to that area.

Stag beetle
The Goliath Beetle is the biggest insect. The adult beetle can grow up to 4.5 inches long ! See related link to Wikipedia for more info.

Yes, in early summer, but depending on the lake it could be all summer. They are usually in more shallow water. My dad got them really bad. You can prevent them by towel drying as soon as you get out of the lake and taking a cold shower. Air drying just lets them burrow in to your skin.

The only insects in the ocean live in the coastal areas, salt marshes, and tidal pools. These include various fly larvae, midges, some beetles, and several species of true bugs. While these insects may spend some time in the ocean, not all parts of their life cycle necessarily occur in the ocean. Some beetles will live in shallow areas of the ocean as adults, but also come out of the water at times.

One interesting group of insects is the Halobites. They are water skimmers that live their entire life on top of the ocean and are found great distances from shore. They lay their eggs on floating sea debris.

The best guess as to why there are no insects that live underwater in the open ocean is that insects evolved on land whereas the crustaceans evolved underwater giving them a competitive advantage from millions of years head start in colonizing the ocean. Because the insects developed on land, they would have to redevelop the traits necessary to live in the ocean.

Most insects of Antarctica are parasites that live on birds and seals. The only known free-living insect is the springtail, which lives on algae and fungi, and are only active during the summer months.

It depends on what type of beetle. There are water beetles that like to live in the water or around it and there are beetles that live in tree bark, rhinoceros beetles live in the rainforet etc. Please specify your question.

There are no insects that live within the ocean but there are several species of Halobites that remain on the surface of the ocean and live of plankton.

The problem can be broken down in 5 regions including a lack of air within the sea water, depth, the salinity, lack of nutrients and a lack of plants as well as competition from crustaceans. Check out the Related Link below for more information.

Millions of monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus) qualify as such.

The most abundant creatures in the rainforest are insects. To avoid predators, many of these insects have developed camouflage. One example is the Leafhopper which looks like thorns. Walking sticks, katydids, and moths resemble twigs, leaves, or bark. When the dead leaf camouflage that the butterfly uses does not work, they use a startling mechanism. Sometimes when a predator gets too close, the butterfly opens and flashes its bright color topped wings. Hopefully, this action startles the predator enough that the butterfly has time to escape.

Usually, poisonous animals and insects also display bright colors, to warn predators that they are deadly when eaten. The poison arrow frog has bright red, yellow, or blue colored skin that intimidates most animals. Heliconid butterflies have brightly colored wings and a bitter taste to remind birds not to eat them.

Predators also use camouflage so they can sneak up on their prey. The clouded leopard’s coat has black spots so it can hide in the shadows. The fer-de-lance snake is easily hidden in decaying leaves with its mottled, brown skin. The matamata, which resembles a turtle, can snatch up fish with its leaf-like shape and appearance.

Camouflaged animals are not always 100 percent safe from predators. Antbirds have an eye and an appetite for stationary, camouflaged, or hard to find insects. These birds follow army ant lines. They do not eat the ants, but use the ants to find their food. They just wait to see what insects move out of the army ants way. When a camouflaged insect moves it becomes visible to the bird and the bird eats it.

Many animals live in the treetops. Sloths, sun bears, giant squirrels, lemurs, tropical porcupines, spider monkeys, pangolins, sifakas, tarsiers, indris, gibbons, anteaters, and many more animals take advantage of life in the trees. Most of the rainforests food can be found here.

Leaves are an easy food to find in the treetops. However, leaves, which are made of cellulose, are hard to digest for some animals. Some animals, like the colobus monkey, sloth, and other leaf eaters, have developed compounds in their stomachs to help digest cellulose. Because cellulose still takes a long time to digest, plant eaters usually move slower than meat, insect, or fruit eaters.

Many animals also dine on fruits and nectar. Fruit is available for frugivores year round in the rainforest. Nectar, which is made mostly of sugar and water, provides energy for bats, hummingbirds, bees, and wasps. Hummingbirds also eat insects for protein.

Animals, like bush babies, lemurs, and pygmy marmosets, eat sap out of trees and gum from the chicle tree. They use their sharp teeth to peel off bark.

Predators in the tropical rainforest use force, skill, traps, and poisons to kill their prey. The jaguar has a muscular body, sharp teeth, and a powerful jaw, which it uses to crush the skulls of its prey. Scorpions, spiders, and some snakes use poisons to kill their prey. The orb-weaving spider in New Guinea weaves strong enough webs to catch birds. The boa constrictor can strangle even a human to death in its muscular coils. Giant anteaters have long, sticky, 24-inch (60 centimeter) barbed tongues to get termites out of narrow termite nests.

Decomposers do the dirty work in the tropical rainforest. Without decomposers, the forest floor would be piled high with fallen tree branches, leaves, and other organic litter that has not decomposed. Decomposers include earthworms, fungi, termites, and bacteria. With termites eating wood, and fungi, earthworms, bacteria, and protozoans working together to decompose other plant matter, within six weeks all rainforest litter will be decomposed. The decomposers in the tropical rainforest are faster than those in any other biome.

The rainforest biome is special because of the amount of life it holds. Half of all the worlds plants and animals live there. Trunks of trees are known to hold forty-three species of ants in the rainforest. Every day, scientists are finding new plants and animals in the tropical rainforest. Many believe that the rainforests diversity is because of its close location to the equator. It is common knowledge that the further a location gets from the equator, the less plant and animal species it contains. The tropical rainforest also receives the most solar energy in the world. This is because the equator is the closest point on the earth to the sun. Sun rays hit the equator straight on, rather than on an angle, because of the earth's curve, like in most places. The more solar energy a place has, the more photosynthesis and growth in plants occurs, allowing animals to have a continuous supply of food. The regularity in temperature is also an influence. Animals never have to adapt to the seasons. These animals were given the chance to adapt in ways that were not possible in any other biome. Water also makes the diversity possible.

All i can think of is mosquitos..

It is definitely possible to get bitten by chiggers in Maryland. Chiggers are a type of tiny, red biting bug. By the time a person realizes they have been bitten, the chiggers have usually fallen off. The best way to treat a bite is with calamine lotion.

Yes, the California blackworm has a heart. It is not as advanced as in many other animals but it does have a functioning heart.

Washington's official state insect is the Green Darner Dragonfly.
