There are hundreds of varieties of bugs and insects, and the differences between them are sometimes obvious. For example, some of them have six legs, such as flies, and some have eight legs, like spiders. Others don’t have any legs at all, but can move around because their bodies are divided into sections: worms and caterpillars

belong to this category. It’s difficult to say for sure why people are so scared of these creatures. Perhaps it’s because they live in dark spaces. I like butterflies but I have to admit I’m terrified of moths. I just don’t like the way they fly. Also, they damage the clothes in your cupboard!
