Flying beetles are known as June bugs. Commonly called ladybugs or lightning bugs, flying beetles are the largest Coleoptera or beetle species in the world. It’s uncommon for them to bite and if they do, it’s mostly harmless unless the person affected has an allergy to them. One of the most interesting bug facts is that they fly like superheroes. They may look like they are levitating because they soar high with outstretched legs. This posture allows them to maneuver and make twists and turns.

Bugs have strong wings. Insects may be fragile and small creatures but their body parts including their wings are made from tough materials. Their wings are made of cuticles which is the world’s second most common and strongest natural material. Insects may grow feathers when needed but bugs do not have this luxury. When they get broken wings, they have to live with it for the rest of their lifetime and in most cases, these bugs survive and successfully live with it. Definitely, one of the most amazing bug facts.

Child of the earth bugs do not fly. The Jerusalem Cricket or also known as the child of the earth bugs are from the genus Stenopelmatus. They do not have their own set of wings that’s why they move around their habitats by hopping and do not chirp like field and house crickets. They are called earth bugs because they are rarely seen since they spend their lifetime in burrows and undergrounds. These bugs only come to the surface during the night to help themselves and look for insects and plant matters to eat.
