Collectible Wildlife Gifts | Earwig, Flexible, Rubber Toy Animal, Realistic Figure, Model, Educational Gift, 3.5 inches Length F1061 B190

Earwigs  make up the  insect  order  Dermaptera. With about 2,000  species  in 12  families, they are one of the smaller insect orders. Earwigs have characteristic  cerci, a pair of  forcep-like  pincers  on their abdomen, and membranous  wings  folded underneath short, rarely used  forewings, hence the scientific order name, "skin wings". Some groups are tiny parasites on mammals and lack the typical pincers. Earwigs are found on all continents except  Antarctica. Earwigs are mostly  nocturnal  and often hide in small, moist crevices during the day, and are active at night, feeding on a wide variety of insects and plants. Damage to foliage, flowers, and various crops is commonly blamed on earwigs, especially the common earwig  Forficula auricularia. Earwigs have five  molts  in the year before they become adults. Many earwig species display maternal care, which is uncommon among insects. Female earwigs may care for their eggs, and even after they have hatched as  nymphs  will continue to watch over offspring until their second molt. As the nymphs molt,  sexual dimorphism  such as differences in pincer shapes begins to show. Collectible Wildlife Toys is the market leader in providing high quality, realistic toys of all types!
