It’s been years since I ran across doodlebugs. But when I saw a stretch of their pitfall traps last week at Coldwater Creek, I knew it was time to write about them.

Doodlebugs, aka ant lions (Myrmeleon immaculatus—although we have 22 species in Florida!), are fascinating little insects that prey upon ants by creating<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcGjPItaKEg"> slippery funnels in the sand</a>. They wait underground under the funnel opening as unsuspecting ants march along the surface and slide down in the ensuing “mini avalanche.” If an ant or other prey item manages to get away, the ant lion can sling sand at it to try and knock it back down into the pit. Doodlebug larvae are the stuff of cartoon nightmares. They possess a pair of giant clawed mandibles, capable of grabbing and injecting prey with a toxin. The poison <a href="https://www.augustachronicle.com/story/lifestyle/2018/04/27/campbell-vaughn-doodlebugs-have-cute-name-but-are-nasty/12387655007/">paralyzes the victim</a> and contains digestive fluids which liquify its insides. At this point, the ant lion goes in for the kill by sucking out the prey’s juices through its deadly mandibles.

As kids, we always found doodlebugs under my best friend’s treehouse. In Milton, they were in a sandy area beneath a cabin roof overhang. These dry, protected sand areas are their preferred habitat and the best place to find them. We used to stick pine needles down into the openings, and watch as a flutter of insect mouthparts tried to grab it from us. Because of their fascinating life cycle and dramatic hunting technique, doodlebugs can be a captivating addition to a <a href="https://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/publication/IN760">science classroom</a>. In fact, there’s a reference to doodlebugs on the <a href="https://www.nasa.gov/history/alsj/a16/a16.doodlebug.html">NASA website</a>, due to an Apollo 16 astronaut’s mention of them. When landing on the moon, the craters reminded Charlie Duke of doodlebug pits, prompting him to recite an old children’s rhyme, “<a href="https://www.waterburyroundabout.org/community-archive/acwxzq1n1bm1dr6z997jkg1wzap17z">Doodlebug, doodlebug, are you at home</a>?”

Weekly “What is it?”: Doodlebugs

I’m not sure if you’ve ever stared at a plant for 15 minutes and tried to count and identify all the insects on it, but I can attest it’s not easy! That is exactly what I, and dozens of volunteers, did last Friday (August 23) as part of the Great Southeast Pollinator Census. Started in [&#8230;]

Started in Georgia in 2019, the idea of the census is to capture a snapshot of data to use as a baseline to understand how our pollinator populations are doing. The data can demonstrate any major changes or trends, like an increase or decrease in insect types or overall numbers from year to year. The census creators also hoped used the effort to teach the public about the importance of insects and increase their habitat. This year is the first time <a href="https://blogs.ifas.ufl.edu/escambiaco/2024/08/01/video-great-southeast-pollinator-census-details/">Florida joined the effort</a>. Each year, the number of participants in the count has risen, with over 700,000 insects counted last year. Since the project’s inception, 2,500 new pollinator gardens have been planted because of the census.
<figure id="attachment_40357" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-40357" style="width: 225px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><a href="https://blogs.ifas.ufl.edu/escambiaco/files/2024/08/pollinator-info-2.jpg"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="size-medium wp-image-40357 lazyload" src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==" alt="" width="225" height="300" data-src="https://blogs.ifas.ufl.edu/escambiaco/files/2024/08/pollinator-info-2-225x300.jpg"></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-40357" class="wp-caption-text">An insect ID training sheet.

The process is simple. Participating observers take a few minutes to look over some identification charts, and are given a checklist that includes photos of the target insect types. Once the 15-minute clock starts, you just watch a section of flowers or a shrub and record how many insects land on the plant. Identification was kept at a basic level, starting with the largest carpenter bees with “shiny hineys” and bumblebees with “fuzzy rears.” Along with these were honeybees, smaller bees, wasps, flies, and butterflies/moths. On my particular observation shrub, a yellow buttercup bush (Turnera spp.), the carpenter bees reigned supreme. They could fit their entire chunky bodies inside the flower and dig in. After those, I counted dozens of small flies. They moved so quickly that I likely missed as many as I tallied, but they were definitely huge fans of the plant.

When we think of pollinators, bees and butterflies are the first to come to mind for most of us. But we forget the underdogs (underbugs?); the less showy and more creepy critters, like <a href="https://www.fs.usda.gov/wildflowers/pollinators/animals/wasps.shtml">flies and wasps</a>. Pollinator wasps and flies very rarely sting, and are often quite shiny and colorful. They do a lot of important work for our ecosystems.
If you don’t have the space, time, or energy to plant a pollinator garden, you can also build or purchase a “<a href="https://gardeningsolutions.ifas.ufl.edu/design/gardening-with-wildlife/pollinator-hotels/">pollinator hotel</a>” for these insects. The structures consist of numerous round tubes of different diameters—often made of cut bamboo—attached together, which allow insects of varying sizes to inhabit the houses.

UF/IFAS Extension Hillsborough County in encouraging residents to participate in a citizen science project to help count insect pollinators during the Pollinator Census. The <a href="https://gsepc.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Great Southeast Pollinator Census</a> is a regional event for the Southeastern states including Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. Similar to the <a href="https://www.birdcount.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Great Backyard Bird Count</a>, the Pollinator Census will be count on two days August 23 and 24, 2024. How to Participate It’s free and open to the public and you can participate in the comfort of your own backyard. On the designated dates of August 23 and 24, 2024 go into your backyard and pick a plant. Write the plant name at the top of your data sheet. Set your timer for 15 minutes and during that time you will count all the pollinators that land on the flowers of that plant. Keep track of bees, wasps, moths and butterflies on your data sheet. If the same insect lands multiple times count each time it lands. After your 15 minutes of counting time is over you can do another plant for another 15 minutes or enter your data into the database online. To enter your data, visit the Great Southeast Pollinator Census website hosted by University of Georgia at <a href="https://gsepc.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://gsepc.org</a>. 
The Great Southeast Pollinator Census has three major goals:
<ol>
<li>To create sustainable pollinator habitat by educating gardeners about using plants that provide nutrition for our pollinators while handling our summer droughts and do not have disease or pest insect pressure.</li>
<li>To increase the entomological literacy of our citizens. As I mentioned to one teacher, we want students to go from “oooo, it’s a bug” to “look at the tarsal claw on that bee!”</li>
<li>To generate useful data about our pollinator populations, so we can begin to spot trends and see how pollinator populations are affected by weather and how honeybees influence native bee populations.</li>
