does anybody know where the insects sleep at the day?

try lifting up some rocks, or looking on the underside of leaves, or in the bark of trees, or under the ground. that's where they may be.

We do have them in the day, just they not show up as well. Many seem more numerous before dawn, because they best seen then or the angle they hit the atmosphere at that time. All I know.

They coloration.\nMoths are mostly nocturnal.\nThey have bodies which help to pollinate flowers, so the flowers they lay their eggs on do not fall off.\nA moth will lay eggs on more than one flower.

They are primarily out during the day. I believe they rely on sight to forage for food so the daylight would probably be quite helpful.

I would do whatever bugs do. Try to survive the day without getting killed or eaten by something else

They might be a type of millipede. I've heard olf them infesting damp areas. If the curl up into balls when you poke them, they probably are.

You "could" get it at any time, not just in the morning.  Right now it is mainly in the India area but has been found in France too.  Jungle animals ( baboons) are the reservoir for it and it would primarily have to be a mosquito that bite one of the carrier animals that bit someone else and then a different mosquito would have to bite that person and then that mosquito would have to bite someone else.  So although it is not out of the question to get it, it will take some time for it to get here.    \n\n  but like i started out saying, it could be a bite at any time of day although mosquitoes usually are active at dawn and at dusk

Where is it that you live?? Maybe loss of habitat in your area has caused them to leave for better places where more food can be found....if there was a swamp in your area that was filled in it could cause the insect population to drop and since insects are thier food of choice maybe there isnt enough anymore. I dont think that any type of animal can be banned from living where it wants but I am fairly certain that human interference is probably what caused them to leave the area in which you live.

Yes.\n\nWild turkeys roost in trees at night. They fly to their roosts at about sunset and fly to the ground at first light where they feed until mid-morning. They will often roost again for a short period in mid-morning and feeding will resume in the afternoon. Turkeys can cover several miles during the course of the day while feeding.

Yes there is\n\nThe largest native land invertebrate on the Antarctic continent is a tiny, wingless midge that is about 1/4 of an inch long. There are also several other types of insects that can be found, which include springtails and tiny mites. Most Antarctic insects live under rocks and stones in the soil and among lichens. Springtails are especially common around penguin colonies. They are black and shiny, and they jump around. No insects in Antarctica have wings, but they all do have a special "anti-freeze" in their cells that is a lot like the liquid that we put in our car radiators for the winter. In Antarctica, there are very few different species of insect. However, in some areas there may be millions of insects per square yard!

Cockroaches are known to live in almost every environment on the planet.

Not around here they aren't. I haven't heard any evidence to say they are, but it is possible. Not very likely however. I would say it is more likely that they are disapearing from a specific place, such as around you, because of changes in the climate, introducion of a new species that is competeing with or eating the bees, or something like that.

Good Night, sweet dreams!Sleep Tight! Don't let the bed bugs bite. =-)\n\nA.H.

normally bats are nocturnal,,,,normally there most of the activities are in night,,,,,,, but they do fly in day,,,,,,, only for migration becoz they cannot tolerate extreme cold temperature,,,,, they can migrate in day for better habitat

Sleep is one of the last bastions of mystery that Science has yet to conquer. Despite several centuries of study, speculation, and debate, we still really don't know what sleep is or why we need to 'shut down' periodically. We know that all sorts of vertebrate animals – mammals, birds, reptiles, and at least some fishes – periodically enter a period of torpor characterized by a profound change in brain waves.\n\nBut when it comes to whether or not sharks sleep, we just don't know. There have been reports from all over the globe, including Mexico, Japan, and Australia, of sharks resting motionless in caves. These have been called "sleeping sharks", but I can attest that the eyes of these quiescent sharks do follow divers moving about in the caves with them, so they're definitely not asleep.\n\nIn his sweeping epic Paradise Lost, 17th Century English poet, John Milton, asked, "What hath night to do with sleep?" We know from sonic telemetry studies (the underwater equivalent of radio tracking) that at least some shark species -- such as the Reef Whitetip (Triaenodon obesus) and the Tiger Shark (Galeocerdo cuvier) -- are actually more active at night than during the day. Since schooling behavior is partially coordinated by vision, many other sharks are most active at dawn and dusk, when such prey is at a disadvantage. Studies such as these suggest that at least some sharks do not sleep at night.\n\nWe used to think that the Great White Shark (Carcharodon carcharias) was primarily active during the day. But it turns out that this is largely due to observer bias: humans tend to be diurnal rather than nocturnal, and it's very difficult to watch an underwater creature at night. Recent experiments by Peter Klimley using stationary telemetry pods placed along the bottom at the Farallon Islands, we have learned that White Sharks are quite active at night, when they probably feed primarily on bottom fishes. If these bottom fishes are sleeping when attacked, they're certainly in for a 'rude awakening'!\n\nBecause sharks rely on ram-ventilation -- that is, their forward swimming to push oxygen-bearing water through their mouths and over their gills -- this fact begs the question: do sharks sleep at all? Dolphins are conscious breathers, actually having to think about rising to the surface, opening their blowholes, and breathing. From Russian studies carried out in the early 1970's, we know that dolphins catnap in 2 to 3-minute stretches, actually shutting down one hemisphere of their brain at a time. From experiments carried out on a small shark called the Spiny Dogfish (Squalus acanthias), we know that the 'Central Pattern Generator' that co-ordinates swimming movements in sharks is not located in the brain, but in the spinal chord. Thus, it is possible for an unconscious shark to swim.\n\nThere is even a possibility that the sharks' fore, mid-, and hind- brain shut down in sequence, resulting in the shark equivalent of sleep-walking.\n\nI hope this answers your question.

Mosquitoes, and all insects, are like cold blooded animals even though they do not actually have blood. They are usually whatever temperature the surrounding air is. At lower temperatures, insects will become inactive because they can no longer use their legs or wings. This is why if you go for an early morning walk when it's still chilly but the sun is up, you'll see bees "waiting" inside flowers, as if they're dead, and you'll see flies and dragonflies sitting on stems and rocks motionless as they absorb heat from the sun so that they can move quickly again. It's actually quite funny to watch since they are moving so sluggishly!
