cool but also a bit sus

The Boll Weevil Monument in downtown Enterprise, Alabama, United States is a prominent landmark and tribute erected by the citizens of Enterprise in 1919 to show their appreciation to an insect, the boll weevil, for its profound influence on the area's agriculture and economy. Hailing the beetle as a "herald of prosperity," it stands as the world's first monument built to honor an agricultural pest.

At the base of the monument appears the following inscription:

"In profound appreciation of the Boll Weevil and what it has done as the herald of prosperity this monument was erected by the citizens of Enterprise, Coffee County, Alabama."

I know spiders aren't bugs, but look at this fellow

I find these leaf-mimic insects really incredible

Honestly all bugs are pretty cool. I love ladybugs for their drip, but also have a lot of love for spiders even though they scare me

I really love harvestmen. They remind me of soot sprites!

Assassin bugs are cool, but my gut says cicadas.

And if anyone is saying any insect that isn't part of the the order hemiptera then you're fake fans. Bees and ants aren't true bugs, they're insects. Respect OP's question, and that includes you too Dirt Owl. Weevils are coleopteras.
