It is not uncommon
for Shine Bugs to mistakenly approach inanimate sources of light in search of a
friend.
It is unwise to
touch a Shine Bug's wing blades directly due to the extremely fragile nature of
their membranes.
The Shine Bug can
be pet anywhere else along its body, although it is advised that care still be
taken due to the generally delicate nature of its exoskeleton.
