Hi guys... How are you today ?
A child approaches a cotton plant, he notices something that is stalking a cotton flower that grows wild in an empty yard, the child shows a striking red insect with a black combination on its wings.
Small insects that attract attention as if communicating with small children who watched him before, at first one red ladybug appeared in front of him but not long after a few other ladybugs showed their faces while showing their joy in front of the child.
That is the behavior of the red ladybug if they are approached by humans, as if he is not afraid and feels comfortable when meeting humans. This red ladybug is very different from other insect species that always stay away when meeting humans, so children often make it as a toy in the lives of children.
Some people refer to it as Pak Pucung, I personally do not know the origin of this name, which I know they were present with nature when I was born. Even that name has been attached to the community both in children and adults.
Whereas in the community of experts or scientists give their name as the insect Dysdercus cingulatus, it is classified into the species Pyrrhocoridae insect, it turns out that this one insect has its own appeal both from the layman or the intellectual community.
If traced it turns out he is very easy to catch even though some people say they are nuisance animals. Its large population can make other insects of different species with it, making it somewhat reluctant to approach it. This proves they are very free to be everywhere and they have free power in any plant, especially in cotton plants.
When we enter an empty yard that has wild plants that bloom, then the first thing we encounter is Pak Pucung then after that we only find other insects such as butterflies, ground beetles, aphids, and various other types of insects that are included in the insect species. It seems like other species that are different from him always stay away from something that frightens them, as if they say Don't disturb our lives But this one Pak Pucung insect always ignores anyone who approaches it and as if they say We are here with other,
These insects are very easy to find in every green plant and special flowering in cotton plants, they are always active in performing various rituals, they are always busy with their own activities such as mating, eating, and other things that become the main behavior in their lives.
Their numbers are large so they are easy to find anywhere, so farmers hate it because their presence can slow the growth of crops managed by farmers, but strangely even though they are driven out, killed or other things but they are still there today. So that the amount is still a lot in a lot of numbers.
Strangely, the life of the father of the Pucung makes children always want to play with him, and they also do not have a sense of caution for children who can sometimes endanger him.
Thus the life of Mr. Pucung that you often see in your daily environment, I also do not understand their true condition, this I write because I was inspired by a small child who was playing with the group Mr. Pucung. Thank you very much.
