As we all know, humans, who are biological beings, go everywhere. parts yourself can leave. These traces we leave behind can be things like our saliva, the waste we leave behind, or the dead skin cells that carry our DNA traces.

This situation in insects It can be said that it is not much different. According to experts, many invertebrates, such as spiders, also leave tracks. A new study published in the scientific journal Biology Letters shows that these traces can also be found in products that play an important role in our daily lives.

Traces of insects found in tea

According to the study, scientists found only 40 samples of dried tea and herbs. 1200 different invertebrates traces of the species have been found. This showed that traces of these small animals were found in the tea we consume daily.

Henrik Krehenwiel, from the University of Trier in Germany, said of this situation:What really surprised me was the diversity we discovered. We found nearly 400 species of insects in a single bag of green tea.† the expressions used. In addition, the experts took total tea and herbal samples from the markets in Germany. 3,264 invertebrates had allegedly been traced. It has been identified that there are many species such as spiders, cockroaches, flies and praying mantises.

How do the dried herbs of this variety (such as tea leaves and mint) work dedicated He thinks he is connected. Krehenwiel and colleagues say the DNA may have come from areas where crops were grown.

In addition, the statements state that the findings could help track these species by providing information about the interaction of arthropods with plants. history and how it has changed It is stated that it can provide us with important information about the
