Do you know about zombie bugs? They not only eat other bugs, but also inhabit and control their bodies. Scorpions glow in ultraviolet light. Flea vomit is the true culprit in a plague epidemic. And lots and lots of bugs dine on corpses.
More bugs to know-and watch out for:
Asian Giant Hornet: The size of a small bird with a sting that feels like a hot nail
Giant Centipede: Up to twelve inches long, it hangs from cave ceilings to catch bats in midair
Bombardier Beetle: Fires a hot, stinging liquid at a speed up to 1000 blasts per second
Puss Caterpillar: It may look like a tiny Persian cat, but its sting hits like a hammer
Chigoe Flea: Check under your toenails-where they may burrow to lay their eggs
Screw-worm Fly: Scientific name: "eater of man". New.
As new paperback. Signed by the author.
