Do insects fall in love?

No. But insects do have ways of finding one another. Some female moths and male butterflies give off a special odor. Male grasshoppers, crickets, cicadas, and katydids sing. Both sexes of fireflies produce flashing lights. Female mosquitoes whirr their wings. And some male insects give their mates tasty bits of food to eat.
