The slightly elongated hind legs of the beetle create the impression that the insect is a bit like a crab. An interesting fact about these bugs: they can move not only backwards, but also to the side, which is not typical of all types of spiders.

The more legs a centipede has, the better? We don't think so. This beauty has 15 pairs of legs and moves at the speed of light. The flycatcher is useful - it hunts moths and cockroaches. As a rule, insects live in damp areas, often under the house. But don't be surprised if she crawls out of your bathroom.
