Click Beetle

Typically found in soil, under bark, or on vegetation; frequently enter homes through windows or doors.

Larvae (wireworms) eat roots and seeds; adults primarily feed on leaves, nectar, or pollen at night.

Features a unique clicking mechanism that allows the beetle to snap its body and flip into the air to right itself or escape predators.

Harmless to humans; larvae can be significant agricultural pests to root crops, but they play a role in soil nutrient cycling.
