What dye comes from bugs?

Cochineal dye, also known as carmine, is a natural red dye derived from the cochineal insect, specifically Dactylopius coccus. These insects are primarily found on cacti in Central and South America. The dye is produced by extracting carminic acid from the dried bodies of the female cochineal and is widely used in food, cosmetics, and textiles for its vibrant red hue.
