INSECTS 🐞

Have you ever thought that insects are nothing than a nuisance? Will you like the world to be free from these annoying pests? Before we declare war on bugs that crosses our paths, have we try to learn something about their world? After all, with a population that outnumbers humans by about 200 million, you can be sure that insects are here to stay.

Flying insects like mosquitoes can fly upside down. Some can even fly through the rain without getting wet. Hover flies can beat their wings more than a thousand times per second. Clearly, insects are accomplished fliers by winged creatures. The eyes of many insects serves as a compass. Bees and wasps can detect the plane of polarized light. This also enables them to locate the sun's position in the sky, even when hidden by clouds.

In the insect world, sound and aromas can often used to find a mate. There is no small achievement when prospective mates are few and far between. Even we humans can hear the amorous cicada of the crickets and grasshoppers as it converts its whole body into a sounding board. Insects plays a vital role in our daily life. About 30% of the foods we eat results from pollination by them. Pollination is one of their useful functions to man. Insects keeps the earth clean by the means of an efficient recycling system, as they reprocess dead plants and animals.

Scientists have observed that without insects, the earth will be inundated with dead plants and animals. Insects also enriches the soil by liberating nutrients that makes things to grow. They are missed solely when their work isn't done. Insects eats crops and carry disease. But only one percent of the world's insect is considered as pests, and these has caused damages because of the way man himself altered his environment.

In Summary, Insects are an integral part of the world on which we depend. Insects can survive without us, but we cannot survive without them. Thank you for reading..!! I warmly invite my special friends @entity01 @bela90 @jasminemary to join this contest.
