Lightning bugs, or fireflies, primarily feed on nectar and pollen from flowers as adults. In their larval stage, they are predatory and often consume soft-bodied insects, such as slugs and other small invertebrates, using their bioluminescence to attract prey. As adults, their diet is less about hunting and more focused on obtaining energy from sugary substances found in plants.
