A kind of insect, or dialect. Insects, also known as "Chinese earthworm", earthworm, earthworm, "dust-dust hungry insect", Guanyin insect (southwest region), etc., a kind of insect. The female insect is black and shiny, while the male insect is light brown and dull. The body is oval in shape, about 35 mm long, with a small head hidden on the ventral side of the prothorax. A pair of antennae about 20 mm long grow on the head, and the compound eyes are large, surrounding the upper part of the outer side of the antennae. The female insect is wingless, while the male insect has wings. It often moves in the soil at the base of the wall of the house. The dried female insect is a medicinal material, which can treat injuries and other diseases. Studies have found that it can treat cancer and recurrence, and it has begun to be artificially bred in large quantities.

They are just stupid and don't know anything. Some people basically describe the kind of people who come to the city from the countryside and have never seen anything.

3. I slept on the floor to keep cool at night, and I caught a beetle in the middle of the night. Do beetles suck human blood?

Does not suck human blood

Blood-sucking insects have piercing-sucking mouthparts and live by sucking the blood of humans or animals. Blood-sucking insects harass people, spread diseases, and cause mechanical damage, which seriously affects people's lives, work, and entertainment, and also has an adverse effect on the growth of livestock and wild animals. Among the 34 orders of the class Insecta, blood-sucking insects belong to four orders: Hemiptera, Pseudoptera, Diptera, and Siphonaptera. [Edit this section] l Hemiptera 1. l Cimexidae are small and wingless. The body is flat and oval. There is a scent gland volatile area and a half-moon-shaped scent gland hole on each side between the bases of the second and third pairs of legs on the ventral side of the thorax, which emits a peculiar smell. The development is gradual metamorphosis. When the eggs are laid, they are stuck to the gaps of boards, walls, beds, or wallpaper with the help of the secretion of accessory glands. They are often gathered together in groups of 3 to 6. The nymphs are in the fifth instar. After the adults emerge, they mate after 1 to 2 days. They can continue to lay eggs for more than 2 months, and can produce 200 to 500 eggs or more in their lifetime. They can usually reproduce 2 to 3 generations a year, and up to 5 to 6 generations. Both male and female bed bug nymphs and adults suck blood. They hide in the gaps during the day and move at night. They have no strict lead and wisdom selectivity for the host. Generally speaking, the younger the nymphs are, the stronger their blood-sucking ability is. They start to be active in April, and their activity intensifies as the temperature rises. This family is divided into 6 subfamilies and 74 species, all of which suck blood. Among them, 51 species suck the blood of bats, and 21 species are closely related to birds. There are only 2 species that suck human blood: temperate bed bugs and tropical bed bugs, and both species are found in my country. 1.2 The subfamily of the family Assassinidae is commonly known as the cone bug. Small to medium-sized, with a long pointed head, a thin neck, free movement, a relatively short and thick beak, and prominent compound eyes. Development is gradual metamorphosis, and the nymphs will emerge as adults after 5 instars after hatching. There are three types of cone bugs: two generations per year, one generation, and one generation every two years. If they are not full of blood, the nymphs can extend the period of not molting for several months, and in extreme cases, it can last up to 4 years. Most of them survive in the wild, and a few have adapted to human dwellings. Wild species live in bushes, caves, under rubble or on the ground, while domestic species mostly live in corners, rat holes, wall cracks, roofs, and livestock sheds and garbage dumps around their homes. Both nymphs and adults, male and female, suck blood. They suck the blood of mammals, birds, reptiles, and even their own species and the stinking locust beetle. The domestic type mainly feeds on the blood of humans, livestock, and farm poultry, and often stings the exposed parts of the human body, especially the outer canthus of the eyes and the lips, so it is called the kissing bug in America. [Edit this section] 2 Triatomine bugs are commonly known as lice. They are small and flat, without wings. The piercing-sucking mouthparts are specially constructed, with the mouth opening located at the front end of the head. There is a circle of groove-like structures that bend outwards on the side of the mouth, 15 to 16 in number, which retract when not in use. Behind the mouth opening is the oral cavity, which is connected to the cavities arranged above and below. The upper cavity is the pharyngeal cavity, and the lower cavity is a long blind sac, the mouth needle sac. There are three mouth needles in the sac, and the salivary duct is located between the dorsal and ventral mouth needles. When sucking blood, the hook-like object turns out to fix on the host's skin, and then the mouth needle pierces the skin, injects saliva, and inserts the pharyngeal tube into the wound. It is a gradual metamorphosis, with long eggs attached to the host's hair or human clothes. The nymphs molt 4 times, and more than 10 generations can occur in a year. Both nymphs and adults, males and females, suck blood. It parasitizes mammals and humans for life, and is selective about its host. There are more than 500 known species in the order Louse, and more than 40 species are known in my country, all of which suck blood. Those that parasitize the human body include: pubic lice, head lice, and body lice. Lice [Edit this section] 3 Diptera This order of insects is divided into 3 suborders, and there are 9 families and 1 subfamily of blood-sucking insects. 3.1 Culicidae, commonly known as mosquitoes, are small in size. The male antennae are hair-shaped, the compound eyes are large, there are no simple eyes, the beak is slender and extends forward, the wings are narrow and long, the top angle is round, the abdomen is slender, and there are scales on the wing margins and wing veins. The eggs are generally laid singly and sink to the bottom of the water. A few are attached to the leaves of aquatic plants. The larvae live in the water for a total of 4 instars. The pupae often float on the water surface or dive in the water. Male mosquitoes can form a group dance phenomenon. Only female adults suck blood. Male mosquitoes mainly feed on nectar and plant sap. Female mosquitoes survive normally by sucking nectar and plant sap, but only after sucking blood can their egg nests develop. There are more than 3,000 species of mosquitoes, and more than 300 species in my country, all of which suck blood. 3.2 Ceratidae is commonly known as black mosquitoes and small bites. Small. When still, the front wings overlap and lie flat on the abdomen. Mosquito eggs can sink to the bottom of the water or adhere to wet soil with the gelatinous substance on the outer edge of the egg shell. The larvae are aquatic or live in humid environments. The larvae living in water are worm-like, and the larvae living on the soil surface are caterpillar-shaped. The larvae feed on algae, fungi, ciliates, etc., and some even kill each other. The larvae are in the fourth instar and pupate in the water or on the soil surface. When the adult midge emerges, it stays on the pupa shell for several minutes, and only spreads its wings and flies after the body color becomes darker. Adult midges often dance in groups during mating. The size of the dance group varies, ranging from 3 to 5 to tens of thousands, usually around 2,000. The dance line is about 1m long, 2 to 5m wide and high, and the bottom layer is about 15cm from the ground. They are usually active at dawn, noon or dusk and are phototactic. Adults are free-living or temporarily parasitic, often occurring in large numbers, and people are bitten and itchy. The feeding habits of adult midges are divided into two categories, one is to feed on plant sap and nectar, and the other is to feed on animal blood. Males and non-blood-sucking parasitic females mostly feed on nectar and plant sap. There are more than 4,000 species of Ceratidae in the world, and more than 400 species in my country. Blood-sucking midges only include all species of four genera, namely, Culicoides, Lepioidea, Lycopodidae, and Austrostomus. There is no Austrostomus in my country. 3.3 The body of the phlebotomidae is tiny, with a body length of about 1.5 to 4.5 mm. The body is covered with hair, with a pair of large and black compound eyes on the head, a pair of long and visible antennae, and narrow and long wings on the back of the chest in the shape of peach leaves. When resting, the two wings are stretched at a 45° angle. The 2nd to 6th segments on the back of the abdomen are hairy. The phlebotomidae chooses dark, slightly moist and secluded places to lay eggs in the soil. The eggs are laid alone. There are 4 larvae, and the 1st to 3rd instar larvae have high requirements for humidity. The 4th instar larvae have strong tolerance to dryness and generally prefer slightly dry but not moist soil surfaces. When pupating, the last layer of skin shed by the larvae remains on the tail of the pupa and does not fall off (which can be used to identify phlebotomidae pupae). After the adult emerges, the sexual organs are mature. The first activity is mating, and then sucking blood. A male phlebotomidae can mate 2 to 3 times, and a female phlebotomidae only receives once. During the growth process of whiteflies, adult female sandflies suck blood, while male sandflies suck plant sap. Whiteflies were originally a genus in the family Ceratidae, namely the genus Phlebotomus, but now it has been upgraded to a family, and all of them suck blood. 3.4 The common name of the family Simulidae is black fly, and in the northeast region, it is called "plane axe" or "hunchback". It is small, 1.5-5mm long, mostly black, strong, and has a humped back. There is a pair of large compound eyes on the head, the female gnats are separated eyes, and the male gnats are connected eyes. The eggs of gnats are often laid in blocks on flooded objects, or directly in the water and sink to the bottom. The larvae attach to objects in the water with the rear hook at the end of the body, and spend most of their time attached. There are two ways for the larvae to move: one is to use the rear hook at the end and pseudopodia to move like an inchworm; the other is to spit out sticky lines from the mouth. The black fly (saliva thread) attaches to a submerged object, then releases its rear hook and detaches from the attachment point, is washed down a distance by the water to the end of the saliva thread, then swallows the saliva thread and returns to the original place, or breaks it and attaches to a new point. Due to the large number of larvae spreading in this way, the numerous saliva threads can sometimes form a spider web. The larvae are 6 to 9 years old, and the pupae are enclosed in a semi-naked cocoon in the shape of a bag, boot or other shape. Adult blackflies mate on rocks near the water. Both male and female adult blackflies can feed on plant sap and natural sugar substances, but only female adults suck blood. Female blackflies can be roughly divided into two types: bird blood suckers and mammal blood suckers. There are several peak blood sucking periods a day, namely 7:00-9:00, 12:00-13:00, and 15:00-17:00. Blackflies are distributed all over the world. Generally speaking, blackflies exist in areas with permanent flowing water. There are about 2,000 species in the world, and more than 150 species in my country, all of which suck blood. 3.5 Tabanidae horseflies suck blood from cattle, horses, etc., so they have common names such as gadflies and horseflies. After entering the house, horseflies often hit the windows, and are also called blind horseflies. The overall appearance of horseflies is like a fly, and the adult body is thick and has scraping and licking mouthparts. The larvae live in moist soil and prey on insect larvae, earthworms, etc. The larval stage is particularly long, and the pupae are often in drier shallow soil layers. Only female adults suck blood, and male horseflies only suck plant sap. Female horseflies also need to suck plant sap. Adult horseflies generally suck blood from animals, not human blood. However, the spotted horsefly and the tabby horsefly prefer to suck human blood. Most of the people who are stung by horseflies when bathing in rivers are these two types of horseflies. It has a strong flying ability, reaching 50km per hour. Moving objects can attract horseflies to suck blood and attack. For example, when a person walks or waves his arms, it will fly around the person's face and bite the person to suck blood. When the person stops moving, the horsefly will leave. There are more than 3,800 known species of horseflies in the world, and there are about 400 species in my country, all of which suck blood. 3.6 Glossinae, commonly known as tsetse flies or sleep flies, have a straight, needle-shaped beak with teeth at the end, so it is called tsetse flies. There are long feather-like hairs arranged evenly on the third segment of the antennae, and the abdominal valve is located on the peritoneum between the dorsal plate and the ventral plate. Both male and female adults suck blood and spread trypanosoma pathogens, causing sleeping sickness in humans and animals, which can be fatal. There is only one genus in this family, namely the genus Tsetse, with 21 species, distributed in tropical, subtropical and Africa, but not in my country. 3.7 Muscidae, subfamily of the family Biting flies are medium-sized or small flies, similar to houseflies, with long, hard and pointed beaks and small lips. The larvae use animal manure as breeding material. Both male and female adults suck blood. All species in this subfamily are blood-sucking species. Common species include: stable biting flies, southern biting flies, Indian biting flies, blood thorn flies, long-haired blood beak flies, saury blood beak flies, bull horn blood flies, and oriental horn flies. 3.8 The body of the tsetse fly family is small or tiny. The adult body is flattened and looks similar to lice. The epidermis is grassy, ​​and the head is flat and embedded in the depression at the front edge of the prothorax. The beak is thin and curved. When not sucking, it shrinks into the head. It may or may not have wings. If there are wings, both males and females have wings, which are retained throughout life or fall off after finding a queen. The rear part of the wings is often wrinkled. The larvae are bred in the adult body, one maggot at a time, and pupate immediately after the maggot is laid. The pupa is round, smooth on the surface, and brown-red. It usually overwinters in the host's nest. Male and female adults of the tsetse fly suck the blood of birds and mammals, and sometimes also suck human blood. All members of this family are blood-sucking species. For example: dog tick flies, horse tick flies, and sheep tick flies. 3.9 The Arachnidae are small, with narrow heads that are folded back and placed in the groove on the back of the mesothorax. The thorax is flat, expanded on both sides, the eyes are degenerate, and there are no wings. There is only one pair of balance bars, and the legs are slender, especially the first tarsus is particularly slender, resembling a spider. Male and female adults suck blood, and the host is bats. All members of this family are blood-sucking species, and they are found in Taiwan and southern my country. Common species, such as the hairy spider flies. 3.10 The Batfly family looks like a red ant, with wings, and the mouthparts are embedded in the concave part of the front head. The back of the thorax is densely covered with hair. The abdomen of the female is inverted egg shape, the first segment is obvious, and the other segments cannot be identified. Male and female adults suck blood, and the host is mainly bats. All members of this family are blood-sucking species, such as bat flies. [Edit this paragraph] 4 The order Siphonaptera is commonly known as fleas, which are small, brown-black, and flattened on the left and right sides. There are many bristles extending backwards on the body surface, and they are wingless and good at jumping. Holometabolism, eggs are usually laid in the host's habitat and activities, such as cave nests. Young fleas are usually divided into three instars. They are usually afraid of light and have poor resistance to dryness. They grow better in a humid environment. They feed exclusively on fine particles, such as organic powder, host feces, and fecal pellets containing a large amount of undigested blood excreted by adult fleas in the host's nest. Blood sucking is the only way for adult fleas to obtain nutrition. They can be divided into three types: (1) Free type, in which adult fleas move freely on the host's body, and their mouthparts only penetrate the host's skin when sucking blood, and the time is very short, but the number of times is frequent. This type of flea accounts for the majority. (2) Semi-fixed type, in which female fleas fix their mouthparts under the host's skin for a considerable period of time (1 to 2 weeks) to suck blood, but male fleas still remain free. (3) Fixed type, in which female fleas live permanently, and their entire body burrows under the host's skin, leaving a hole in the skin, through which they breathe, defecate and lay eggs, but male fleas still remain free. All species in this order are blood-sucking. There are more than 2,300 species (including subspecies) in the world, and about 500 species in my country.
