Some people have a high risk of developing cancer because they have inherited mutations in certain genes.

Japanese beetle life cycle. Adults emerge from the soil in early July, feed, mate, and lay eggs. In July adults are noticed feeding on vines, linden trees, roses, and many other ornamentals. Activity is most intense over a 6 to 8 week period, after which the beetles gradually die off.
Flour mites (Acarus siro) are very tiny little creatures, but they can still be pests. A flour mite, sometimes called a grain mite, appears harmless. It is just a little over a tenth of an inch long. It has a soft white body, and like all mites, it has eight legs, except in the larval stage when it has only six legs.ts life span can be as short as 9 days or as long as a month, depending upon various conditions. The life cycle starts with the egg. A female mite will lay up to 30 eggs per day for a period of several weeks. The maximum number of eggs a female will lay during her lifetime can approach 800.
