Sporting her well known yellow and black colors, we meet the bumblebee. Despite her peaceful existence she still has all sorts of creatures after her, it's a good thing she's got that stinger to protect her, even if it doesn't really do much harm.

It's a hard knock life for this daddy long legs, as he tells us from his hiding place about all the creatures trying to eat him. While he can hide by sticking things onto himself, and even take his own legs off, he still doesn't have it easy!

Emerging as the lights go out, we meet a cockroach, coming to take some food. This survivor, tells us how he can go without air, food, water and even a head. But with all the humans and animals out to get him or eat him, it's no wonder he tries to avoid the light.

Insulted by the salt left in the garden, this slug begins to tell us how wrong we are about him. With his 25,000 teeth he eats things like dead leaves, fungus, and dog poo all over the world. Between being on the menu and drying up in the sun, it's pretty hard for this guy to survive, and yet he's still feeling ignored.

Meet the moth, a voiceless critter that dreams of one day being in the spotlight. She tells us about how she loves the light, flower necter, and dew, but it's a shame she doesn't get more attention like her relative, the butterfly!

Here, flying around a pond, we meet a newly grown up Dragonfly. While she may have spent two years growing up underwater, she's only going to be an adult for two weeks. She's now a fast flying beauty, but if she gets in trouble, she'll blow gas out of her bottom to jet away!

Bouncing around happily on a small dog, is an even smaller flea. Born among thousands of brothers and sisters, this little guy has been making pets itchy for more than 100 million years! It's a good thing he is such a good jumper too, because he's got to look out for flea treatments!

Look out! Here among the flowers we meet a wasp! While living in a nest she built out of chewed wood, she does really helpful things like eat bugs that eat your plants and drink nectar from flowers, but whatever you do, don't mistake her for a bee, you might get stung!

Everybody hates mosquitos, but this mosquito tells us she loves humans, and their blood! As a mommy she needs the blood to help her babies, so she's gotta get it from humans, horses, and cows. She doesn't mean to spread disease around, but it's still hard to like a creature that likes the smell of sweat and feet.

Come on out at night and meet a centipede, the oldest land animal in the world. Even though she's eaten by both humans and animals the centipede uses her hard shell, speed, and 20 to 300 feet to try and keep out of trouble. Good luck keeping this girl in shoes and pedicures!

Eating away at the plants of farmers and gardners, we stumble upon a very hungry caterpillar. He tells us that even though he's soft and slow, he can survive using his bright colors and 4000 muscles. And if he can make it, then he's going to be a beautiful butterfly!

Meet the earwig; this guy likes to sleep all day and then eat things like rotting plants and insects all night long. But don't worry, even though he's got big pincers he says he's not going to go through your ears to your brain any time soon.

Hard at work for his colony we meet a soldier termite. He may not be able to feed himself, thanks to his big head, but he's got to protect the workers, the king, and the queen! She's the heart of the colony, laying about 2000 eggs per day, and with that many powerful termite soldiers, you better make sure you're a friend, not a foe.

Oh no! A fly is about to eat your food! With 4000 lenses in each eye, this guy can brag about how well he detects movement, making it hard to swat him. Plus he's a great flier, able to land almost anywhere, even ceilings. He may wash all his legs before and after eating, but that still doesn't mean you want him on your food!

Hanging out wherever there are grazing animals, is the tick. This little guy shares with us all his cool design features that have been helping him suck blood for 146 million years. But like anyone, he's not very fond of the name parasite, he's just trying to do his job.

Wearing those fast stripes on his back, comes the super speedy tigerbeetle. He tells us that almost anything that crawls he can chase after and eat, even if he doesn't have any teeth. If you find this little guy in a sandy area or a desert, you better try not to get nipped.

Hanging out on the US west coast and Mexico is this cool potato bug. Even though he doesn't have ears, this chill dude dispels some of the rumors about him, saying he's not poisonous, he's not an invasive pest, he's a vegetarian, and he's actually not all that partial to potatos.

Here, putting on a pretty light show, is a glow worm. We learn that after sundown she and her girlfriends light up to attract both boys and food. But with wings that don't work, all this girl's got is her light, and those street lamps can be really distracting!

Just coming out of her cocon, is a beautiful butterfly. She tells us that while she may have once been an ugly caterpillar, she now has bright and colorful wings. The designs on her wings can attract the attention of other butterflies. One of them better appreciate her beauty, or she won't be very happy.

Look real close and you may find a praying mantis, getting ready to catch her dinner. She may look like she's saying her prayers, but she's no angel. With her five eyes she's always on the look out for her Prince Charming, but it's probably very hard to find him when you keep biting off everybody's heads!

While she is waiting for a mouse to fall into her trap, we meet the biggest spider in the world, the tarantula. With that big hairy body and some scary poison fangs, it's a wonder anybody would ever want to keep her as a pet.

Meet a tiny little worker ant. He takes a quick break from his duties to tell us about his colony, in an ant hill. This heavy lifter can pick 20 times his own body weight, plus he's got the largest brain among insects. Brains and brawn, wow! Just don't stay and talk to long, you might get him in trouble.

Feeling a little itchy? It could mean you're sharing a bed with this little guy, the bed bug. Actually you're probably sharing your bed with a lot of bed bugs, because they really like to share. Good night, sleep tight, and don't let the bed bugs... well actually he tells us he can't bite at all, he's got no teeth, but that doesn't mean you're safe.

Welcoming us to his swamp is the handsome and bright firefly. Putting on a fabulous light show is all in a night's work for this beetle. Normally he and his friends only light up to mark out their territory, find a mate, or scare away the bugs that want to eat them, but tonight you're very lucky, he's gonna put on a show just for you.

Disappointed at the loss of his dinner, this fearsome predator shares with us that, despite his name, he is not a lady or a bird, he's a beetle. Underneath his colorful, spotted shell are a nice pair of wings. And he's gonna need 'em to catch those lousy flies!
