Do Pests Eat Each Other?
Posted by Mosquito SquadDecember 4, 2024
Many pests are also cannibals, whether by mating ritual or due to scarcity of food sources.
Spiders, for instance, are often cannibalistic. Some spiders’ mating rituals require the male spider to present its intended mate with a silk-wrapped flies before mating, while other spiders’ mating rituals include the male killing another male before winning its intended mate. Female jumping spiders will consume a courting male if they deem their mating dance and song are not up to snuff! Many spiders will consume carcasses of others after a pest control treatment. Also, a pest issue, like a fly problem or midge infestation, can result in more spiders around your home.
What Other Types of Bugs Eat Each Other, or Eat Other Bugs?
Many other types of bugs each not only their own kind but other pests too! Spiders, as you know, will consume many types of prey caught up in their webs. Conversely, centipedes and wasps eat spiders. And whether you consider them pests or not, frogs and lizards consume many types of insects. Dragonflies are known to be no-see-um and mosquito hunters, as are bats and birds. Ladybugs, spiders, and ants will feast on fleas.
Some wasp larvae eat their siblings. Some beetles eat maggots and caterpillars.
But can we count on one type of pest to eliminate others, enough so, that our yards are safer places to relax and play? Not so much!
