What's your favorite Insect Fact?

I need more bug knowledge in my life.

I offer these facts in return:

Bees:

  • Bees speak through dance.
  • Only female bees have stingers.
  • Male bees are thrown out of the hive during winter to conserve resources.
  • Bees will play with balls for fun.
  • Honey can last for hundreds of years when properly preserved.

Ants:

  • Ants speak through pheromones.
  • Ants have graveyards.
  • If a living ant has the pheromones of a dead ant they will be brought to the graveyard (either by self isolation or brought their through peers).
  • Ants are one of the only other species to declare wars.

Scorpions:

  • Scorpions glow under a black light.
  • Scorpions look after their offspring after birth.

It was a nice day with a warm breeze.

I found this firebug in my greenhouse, I thought they might be an unusual morph but I looked them up and I think that is just what they look like right after moulting. The black spots take a while to appear.

a freshly moulted firebug, sitting on a wall above some soil and mulch. they are dark orange without any black spots.

I gathered a lot of greens and herbs for the kids. Bunnies love bamboo btw, fortunately it grows in my garden.
