The male firefly will flash its light, and wait for two seconds. If a female does not flash its light back, the male will move to a different place and flash and wait for two seconds. Once a male attracts a female, fireflies will reproduce sexually, and lay eggs.

Fireflies respond to the environment because if it is a full moon, or if there is too much light, a firefly will not try to attract a mate by flashing its light since the mate will not see it.

Firefly eggs hatch into a larvae. The larvae glows in the dark, and are called glowworms. The glowworms eat other insects, snails, and slugs. Adult fireflies also eat other insects, pollen, and other flower parts.

 Fireflies produce a chemical reaction inside their bodies that allows them to light up. This type of light production is called bioluminescence. When oxygen combines with calcium, a chemical is made, making the light be produced. A firefly’s light is cold, without a lot of energy being lost as heat. This happens because if a firefly's light got hot, the firefly would not survive the experience.  A firefly controls the beginning and end of the chemical reaction, and the start and stop of its light, by adding oxygen to the other inner chemicals needed to produce light. When oxygen is available, the light glows, and when it is not available, the light goes out. Insects do not have lungs, so they transport oxygen from outside their body to the interior cells with a complex series of smaller tubes known as tracheoles.

Lightning Bug Lady Bug The lightning bug will produce a light in order to attract other beetles of its kind in order to sexually reproduce. Lady bugs release pheromones to attract a mate. Pheromones are like a perfume to lure in a mate. Lightning bugs and lady bugs are the same because they are both a part of the beetle family which means they have hard wings that serve as a shell.
