Researchers have discovered a hidden world of electrostatic forces that insects use to navigate and communicate. Studies suggest that nocturnal moths, for example, may be better at dodging predators by carrying lower electric charges. This phenomenon could have significant implications for entire ecosystems and even plant evolution. Experts warn that human activities, such as releasing static electricity into the environment, may unknowingly hinder animals' ability to use these forces.
