Insects

before or after they begin their bite? they're so small as larva they're almost invisible. an immediate (like right away following exposure) hosing down of the threat areas usually prevents more bites. at this point heat is ineffective. following being bitten, scalding hot showers are work with me.

I get four to eight hours of chigger itch relief (same with poison oak, ivy and sumac rashes).

i don't know why more drs. don't recommend brief exposure to scalding but they don't ... but for people like me who are tormented by insect and allergenic reactions heat is an excellent histamine blocker.

Yes, Rolly Pollies, also known as pill bugs or woodlice, are not insects. Instead, they belong to the group of crustaceans that are more closely related to shrimp and lobsters. They are known for their ability to roll up into a ball when disturbed.

Millipedes use their antennae for sensing their environment, detecting food, and navigating their surroundings. They are sensitive to touch, vibrations, and chemicals in the air, helping them to avoid predators and find food sources.

Bees and other insects are attracted to flowers and pick up pollen, which they transfer to other flowers depending on when the second flowers' sex pollination happens.

A bug light is a type of outdoor light that is designed to attract and kill insects. It typically emits UV light that insects are drawn to, and once they come in contact with the light, they are either electrocuted or trapped.

dont really know but hes mostly in partys with lots of gadgets like the prehistory party

well, they've been on the earth for longer than everything else that walks on land so it's not really "dispersing" if they're already there. they've had hundreds of millions more years to travel than mammals.

ways of eating. Some insects eat other insects, like the mantis. Other insects prefer to eat fruit (fruit flies) while still others prefer to eat leaves (caterpillars). Generally, most insects eat anything found, though, like leaves, fruit, grass, dirt, etc.
grass

The insect that lays orange eggs on ferns is likely to be a type of ladybug known as the orange ladybird (Halyzia sedecimguttata). These ladybirds are commonly found on ferns and their eggs can be orange in color. The larvae of these ladybirds feed on aphids and other small insects found on ferns.

A stimulus evokes a response.

Bee

This is effectively the definition of insects.

European Earwig because the description is very similar to an European Earwig. They both have a knob head, and online in google images there is some pictures of European Earwigs eating peaches by a farmers market.

An insect scientist is called an entomologist.

fireflies fly at about 8-10m/sec.

Insects shed their exoskeleton in order to grow. They expand quickly before the next exoskeleton hardens.

Perhaps you have an infestation of "Indian Meal Moths". The eggs would have been in some grain product that you stored in the cupboard. Over time the eggs hatch, and then the larva become Moths. Check the cupboard or pantry for more larva or moths. Dry dog food, cat food, or bird seed are big time sources. The older a product is, the greater the odds are that you will have bugs. All grain products have insect eggs in them. Sorry but it is a fact of life.

If it is indeed a grain moth infestation you will have to throw out ALL the grain products that were stored together. Save NOTHING. If you do the chances of the infestation starting over again is VERY high.

If you have grain products that you use very seldom, like flour, rice, etc, putting them in the refrigerator or freezer will make the eggs stay dormant, or kill them if the temperature is low enough.

of course the daddy long leg has enemies its enemy is other daddy long legs

The stage of being a larva

Insects must be controlled because they can over populate. Some can be quite harmful to humans and others are just plain pests.

Yes. They are the ones with the crazy long legs-the others are millipeeds.

The word 'millipede' means a thousand legs, where as 'centipede' means a hundred legs. Also, the millipede is poisonous (don't eat it) and some species are toxic (don't touch it). The centipede is venomous (don't let it bite you). Each millipede's segments are connected to two pairs of legs and the centipede only has one pair for each segment. millipedes may have more legs but the centipede is usually longer and flatter as the millipede is very round
