Thankfully, not all the bugs listed at these links are found in the Louisiana area, but we think it’s pretty interesting to learn about not just the pests we control but some darned weird-looking critters as well.
General info about insects, etc.
- There are many more kinds of insects on earth than any other kind of living creature. (95% of all the animal species on the earth are insects!)
- Over one million species have been discovered by scientists, and they think that there might be ten times that many that haven't been named yet!
- One out of every four animals on earth is a beetle.
- 10% of the animal biomass of the world is ants, and another 10% is termites.
- Insects eat more plants that any other creatures on earth. They are so important in the breakdown of plant and animal matter, that without them, we would have a world covered with dead plants and animals.
- Enjoy these links!
