A beautiful little creature in orange color that stands out like a lifeless miniature.

Hallo everyone,this time I want to share some pictures of the Red Cotton Bug.

At first I saw a small insect crawling on a small branch near my flower plant.He also has orange and red colors with some spots on his back and also a white collar, this insect measures only 12-18 cm.

Now it is very difficult to find these insects because their natural habitat is damaged such as forests that are converted into industries.

But behind its beautiful color, it turns out that this insect is a type of plant pest, usually it attacks cotton plants.
He ate the seeds of the cotton plant and many were found in groups, they ate the cotton seeds and it made him leave stains on the cotton seeds.

The breeding of this insect initially lays its eggs and puts them in the soil of the host plant. Until five days later the eggs hatch and the nymphs will develop into adults in about 40 days.
