Juveniles grow up by eating small animals in water. Some of them live on the bottom of the water, and some attach themselves to aquatic plants in the upper layers of the water body, which can feed on mosquitoes. Adults catch insects of the right size during flight and feed on them.

Dragonflies mostly fly over open areas. Insects of the Fly family often come out at dusk to hunt mosquitoes, small moths, leafhoppers, etc., and are important beneficial insects.

Locusts eat plants, such as the leaves of rice, dragonflies eat mosquitoes and flies, and adult beetles feed on different ways, some feed on plant roots, stems and leaves, some feed on decaying organic matter, and some feed on feces.

Locust. It mainly feeds on the leaves and young stems of plants, such as water spinach, cabbage, sweet potato, rice, sorghum, etc.

Cockchafer. Feeds on underground parts such as plant roots and tubers or seedlings.

Dragonflies mainly feed on mosquitoes, flies and various small insects, and dragonflies in the larval stage will prey on snails, small fish, and midges larvae.

Locusts eat straw, as well as other green plants such as watermelons, carrots, etc., beetles eat the leaves of various plants, and dragonflies eat mosquitoes and flies

According to the feeding habits of ladybugs, they can be divided into predatory (carnivorous), herbivorous and fungivorous. Predatory ladybugs mainly feed on small insects such as aphids, scale insects, psyllids and red spiders. Such as, seven-star ladybug, tortoise-striped ladybug, thirteen-star ladybug, two-star ladybug, small red ladybug, red-spotted lip ladybug, heterochromatic ladybug, Australian ladybug, etc.

Herbivorous ladybugs mainly feed on Solanaceae, Cucurbitaceae, Nettle and other plants. For example, eggplant twenty-eight star ladybug, potato ladybug. The food of fungivorous ladybugs is mainly based on the spores and hyphae of powdery mildew.

For example, eggplant twenty-eight star ladybug, potato ladybug.

Early dragonfly larvae feed on aquatic animals such as small crustaceans and protozoa, while later larvae feed on midnight mosquito larvae, aquatic beetles and snails.

Feeds on leaves, stems, flower buds and fruits of wheat, rice, millet, corn, beans, tobacco, reeds, vegetables, fruit trees, trees and weeds.

Dragonflies can eat locusts, but they are generally difficult to catch.

Dragonflies generally hunt in the air, dragonflies are lighter, their mouthparts are not very lethal, and locusts generally eat leaves on the ground or plants, so it is difficult to prey on adult locusts with larger weights. There are large black and green dragonflies that are nearly ten centimeters long, and occasionally catch smaller locusts.

Dragonfly larvae can prey on their own or other small animals in the water, and sometimes their own species can kill each other. Adults generally fly in ponds or rivers to prey on flying insects. In addition to a large number of mosquitoes, flies and other harmful insects, some can also prey on butterflies, moths, bees, which are beneficial insects.

There are more than 5,000 known species of dragonflies.

Dragonflies generally fly in ponds or rivers, and adults hunt flying insects in flight. Mosquitoes and other insects that are harmful to humans, but they have a wide range of eating habits, so they cannot rely on it to specifically control a certain insect pest, but there are some differences in what dragonflies eat in different periods.

Early dragonfly larvae feed on aquatic animals such as small crustaceans and protozoa;

Late larvae eat midges larvae, aquatic beetles and snails, and even small fish;

Adult dragonflies need a warm climate, food, and water suitable for spawning to reproduce. Fish and birds will prey on dragonfly larvae, and the larvae will also eat each other, and may be preyed on by birds and small fish when they emerge.

It can be said that dragonflies are carnivores and eat everything that can be defeated.

How can dragonflies eat locusts? You see, the dragonfly's mouth is not as big as the locust's mouth when it opens, how does it eat the locust, and the dragonfly's diet should be mainly plants, accompanied by plankton in the water. It should be a praying mantis that can eat locusts.

Yes, dragonflies generally fly in ponds or rivers, larvae (larvae) develop in water, adults prey on flying insects in flight, mainly feed on mosquitoes and other insects that are harmful to people, and there are some differences in what dragonflies eat in different periods. Early dragonfly larvae feed on aquatic animals such as small crustaceans and protozoa, and later larvae feed on midger larvae, aquatic beetles, snails, and even small fish, and the prey of the adult is usually a flying insect, but it will also prey on prey that is 60% larger than its own body weight.

They do not eat, which is related to the habits of these two types of insects.

1. Dragonflies mostly live near the water, and most of the places where grasshoppers live are relatively arid.

2. Grasshoppers are not migratory locusts, they fly short distances. Dragonflies fly long distances, and grasshoppers fly at lower altitudes and dragonflies fly at higher altitudes.

3. Dragonflies mainly feed on lepidoptera, dipteras, taperoptera, veinoptera, homoptera and other insects, and almost no dragonflies are heard of feeding on orthoptera insects.

4. Grasshoppers are large, dragonflies are difficult to catch, young grasshoppers can't fly, and dragonflies can't catch them at all.

5. Dragonflies are very fast when they fly, and they are more sensitive to flying insects, and grasshoppers spend most of their time in the grass, and dragonflies are difficult to capture the image of grasshoppers in an instant.

6. A more popular saying is that dragonflies may not recognize grasshoppers. Just like the goldfish raised at home, if they are fed certain foods for a long time, it is very likely that they will not recognize some things at all, and even if they can eat them, they will not eat them.

Unless you give it a stunt, huh
