Answer:

. Insects are everywhere. In fact, insects are the most numerous creatures on the earth. They live on all of the continents of the world except Antarctica, although a few may have hitchhiked there with human scientists who have gone to study the area.

The scientific name for insects is Heteroptera. It is estimated that there are over a million different species of insects on the earth. Insects compose over 80% of the world's animal population. And within each species there are literally millions of members. New insects are being discovered all of the time. In fact, scientists believe that there are more species we don't know about yet, than we currently have identified. That's really amazing to think about!!

The study of insects is known as entomology. You would think all those entomologists could give a more accurate count of the number of insects on the earth. But counting insects is more or less impossible. The truth is, most insects hide – that is one of the ways that they protect themselves. Many live underground or inside trees and other living things. Lots of them have very short life spans – maybe a few days. This makes it hard to count them. So scientists make estimates based on colonies found in a given area or evidence insects leave behind.
