Do bugs turn to dust when crushed?

When bugs are crushed, they do not turn to dust in the literal sense, but their bodies can break apart into small pieces or fragments. Insects have exoskeletons made of chitin, which can shatter or become pulverized under pressure. This can create a fine residue that might resemble dust, but it's primarily bits of the insect's exoskeleton and internal contents. So, while they don't turn to dust completely, they can break down into smaller components.
