Reminder: This blog is safe for bugs

We don’t discuss squashing, killing, or hurting insects or arachnids here.

We don’t talk about being terrified or burning the house down.

Insects are some of the most fascinating creatures on earth. Over half of the biomass of the planet is made up of insects (!!) This is their planet just as much, if not moreso, than ours.

Bugs are cool

Skullcap skeletoniser moth (Prochoreutis inflatella). A completely metal-looking name, and the moths themselves are incredible as well. The 'skullcap' part comes from one of the plants that they commonly feed for: Scutellaria lateriflora, which has a variety of common names that involve skullcaps (such as Blue skullcap or American skullcap). 'Skeletoniser' is a biological term that means a moth whose larvae eat the cell tissue of the plant, leaving the skeleton behind. For example, eating the green parts of the leaf, leaving the white parts connecting it to the stem intact.
