An insect is represented by the character a. x ("xan or other mystical/fantastic insect") could also be argued to be insects. Otherwise, insects are:
Ants
- a Soldier ant
- a Giant ant
- a Fire ant
Bees
- a Killer bee
- a Queen bee
Other insects
- a Giant beetle
- a Locust (SporkHack only)
Non-insects
- s giant spider
- s cave spider
- s Scorpius
- s scorpion
- s centipede
- x grid bug
- x xan
Notes
Hostile priests can cast Summon insects, particularly in Moloch's Sanctum and the Astral Plane. If all insects have been genocided, they will instead summon snakes.
Strategy
It is not a good idea to genocide any species of insect, as they provide a valuable barrier between you and far tougher monsters in the Sanctum and Astral Plane. Some players make an exception for Soldier ants, as they pose a particular hazard in the early game.
