An orange butterfly or in scientific language called Papilio Memnon suddenly flew from an unknown direction and came perched on one of the ornamental flower plants that grow in our yard.
In our area, these butterflies are very rarely found, especially in the coastal area, incidentally our domicile is located precisely in the Pusong Lhokseumawe Fisherman Village, Aceh.
A few weeks ago he was also seen in the yard area of the house and today he has come back here in the order of the week time meaning he always comes to our yard about once a week.
Butterflies are very fond of locations where there are lots of flowering plants, including the type but they will always come to flowers that will be or are developing in each location, so in this case it can be ascertained that their visits within a certain time are due to the influence of flower development in a place.
Indeed, in the location of our house yard there are many species of ornamental plants, which have been growing since several years ago. So that there are many insect species either included in flying insects or insect species that stay silent without making flight.
The presence of butterflies in one location is an advantageous thing, not the opposite, it even helps in the process of pollination or mating between flowers and producing fruit, the point is that their presence can accelerate the process of blooming flowers. So that some people always do any tricks so that butterflies are present in their home garden or at certain locations in cultivating flowers.
You will also see every butterfly that comes and is present on your home page, if you know the needs of butterflies, you will definitely know what butterflies are often looking for and of course will prepare their needs to be present and be useful for your plants
In general and it is commonly known by many people that, there are 4 things that every individual butterfly likes and is always looking for.
These four things sometimes already exist in every plant that grows in your home, or in an area that is being cultivated, these four things are like:
A. Looking for nutritional intake
B. Seek refuge
C. Looking for food
D. Looking for water.
Every animal will always roam every day or it will increase its location of origin and then go to a location with lots of food, indeed the butterfly does not have a mouth to consume food like other animals, but it will still need food, only sucking fluids as nutrients for its body intake in live this life. Butterflies themselves will always look for food sources, in general, butterflies look for two things from a plant, namely:
The presence of butterflies in one plant such as the orange butterfly in this post can be said to have 2 categories, the first makes the plant its egg host plant, and the second only sucks flower nectar as nutrient intake for its body.
According to my daily observations or observations of butterflies, she really likes plants such as the Putri Malu of plant growing wild in every person's yard.
Then also he likes some other plants that grow wild or ornamental plants that are being cultivated by their owners, including sunflower plants.
Still with the choice of plants that he chooses, butterflies will always choose plants that have dense leaves such as lantana plants, lantana plants have lots of leaves and flowers with lush physical characters so that it is very useful for butterflies to reproduce in increasing their population
The target or choice of each plant that has lush leaves certainly has a specific purpose for the individual butterfly.
Its main goal is to seek protection from all terror that comes from nature itself, such as:
Peace of life is not only needed by humans but animals also want it, for example like butterflies, they also know everything that makes their habitat or body threatened by something that is destructive.
So, with the instincts that each butterfly has, it is very precise and precise in predicting something that might have a negative impact on them.
So that some butterflies carry out transmigration activities from one plant to another, which are sometimes far away and the nearest is close depending on the natural conditions themselves.
