Metallic Woodborer, borisa beetle, and bark beetle are examples of what type of beetle?

The correct answer recognizes that Metallic Woodborers, borers, and bark beetles are categorized as non-infesting beetles. Non-infesting beetles typically do not establish long-term colonies or infestations in the same way that pest species do. Instead, their life cycles and behaviors do not lead to significant damage to wood or plant material over extended periods.

In contrast, infesting beetles actively invade and reproduce within wood or plant materials, leading to structural damage or decay. Ground beetles are primarily associated with predatory behavior and do not generally target wood, and predatory beetles focus on hunting other insects rather than causing harm to plants and trees. Understanding these classifications helps in identifying and managing beetle populations effectively in pest control scenarios.
