Fleas are highly specialised bloodsucking parasites belonging to the order of insects called Siphonaptera, which means "wingless siphon". They have a formidable reputation of claiming more victims than all the wars ever fought, as a result of the "bubonic" (Black Death) plague they spread throughout the world in the 14th century causing the deaths of over 200 million people. Now, these insects are better known for their irritation and pest status worldwide. People, Insect Identification, Pests, Siphon, Fleas, Plague, Parasite, Black Death

Ant tending Aphid- Ants of many species tend aphids  other small insects in the order Homoptera. Aphids  their relatives suck sap from plants through straw-like, piercing mouthparts. While they do use some of the dissolved sugar in the sap, there is much more than they can make use of, and they excrete a sugary liquid called honeydew. In some cases, ants and aphids have developed mutualistic relationships in which the ants protect the aphids. Piercing, Ants, Plants, Aphids, Species
