Monomad: the king of liars the 'carpenter bee'
Hello everyone in black and white
As far as I know, the strongest king of the insect species is the carpenter bee, which is one of the insect species classified in the genus xylocopa. This beetle excavates wood not to eat, but is more famously known for making nests in trees that are already dead or in decayed wood. Its mouth is so strong that little by little, they can bore into the wood to use it as their nest.
Not only that, besides being able to bore into wood, this species of insect is also considered somewhat dangerous if we disturb it. Just look at its back, which seems ordinary, but don’t be mistaken; they can injure humans with a deadly sting on their back. Essentially, this beetle is classified as one of the insects that harm humans. They don't just bore into one wood but rather several places, including old houses. Almost everyone kills them when they see them starting to wander around their living areas. While this beetle was happily standing on top of a log that had been cut down, I seized the opportunity to catch it.
The king of wooden liars "Carpenter Bee" will be included in the daily #monomad challenge organized and curated by @monochromes.
