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”
Adapted from Amy Stewart’s original New York Times bestseller, the young readers edition of Wicked Bugs is a creepy-cool guide to the worst of the worst insects, arachnids, and arthropods.
