110 days to go to Insect Week
ORDER: ZYGENTOMA
(Ancient Greek - zyg = bridge ; entoma= insect)
Wingless primitive insects up to 20mm long. More common in damp sheds than in the garden, medium sized, flattened, silvery scaled.
Mosquitoes sense human skin volatiles, these vary between people so some of us are bitten more than others.
