Ants are highly social insects belonging to the family Formicidae, living in organized colonies with specialized roles such as workers, soldiers, and queens. Known for their incredible strength relative to their size, communication via chemical scents (pheromones), and complex nest building, ants feed on honeydew, nectar, seeds, and small insects. They play a vital ecological role in Bali’s tropical gardens and natural landscapes as soil aerators, decomposers, and seed dispersers.

Beetles are insects belonging to the order Coleoptera, recognized by their hard, protective forewings (elytra) that cover and shield their delicate flight wings. With a wide variety of species, they undergo complete metamorphosis from larvae (grubs) to adult beetles. Depending on the species, they feed on leaves, wood, fruit, nectar, or decaying organic material, playing an essential ecological role as pollinators, decomposers, and natural pest regulators in Bali’s rich gardens and lush forest ecosystems

The dragonfly is a fast-flying insect belonging to the order Odonata, characteristically identified by its large compound eyes, elongated body, and two pairs of strong, transparent wings.

Typically found near freshwater sources like ponds, rivers, and rice paddies, they serve as key bioindicators of a healthy, clean environment throughout Bali.
