👉 Vermifugal is a type of insect that feeds on plant material. It is typically found in areas with high levels of vegetation, such as gardens or lawns. Vermifuges are responsible for controlling pests and diseases that might otherwise harm plants. They feed on the sap of plants, which contains enzymes that help to break down the plant's cells and weaken them. This process is known as dehiscence, which can be harmful if not controlled properly.
