  1. Dragonflies are a ferocious predator of the insect world, devouring other insects. They have been around since before dinosaurs and are an integral part of many ecosystems. They are not harmful to humans.

    And I even found this

    Odonata. This is an Order of insects whose members are loosely known as 'dragonflies' and which contains two main Suborders: Anisoptera (dragonflies) and Zygoptera (damselflies). In order to avoid confusion between the two meanings of the word 'dragonfly', it is easier to refer to the former as 'odonates', leaving 'dragonflies' for use when referring specifically to anisopterans. They are not difficult to separate from other orders of insects: adults have a pair of prominent compound eyes that take up most of the head, a contracted thorax bearing, as well as the usual three pairs of legs, two pairs of large, delicate, membranous wings, and a long, slender abdomen. They breathe through spiracles (holes) in the abdomen. During their earlier, larval, stage, the insects live in water and breathe through gills. During both stages, odonates exhibit voracious appetites, feeding exclusively on small animal matter. Contrary to general belief, they CANNOT sting - nor can they harm humans in any other way!

  3. Nope.  Not at all.  And they eat lots of bugs we don't like such as mosquitoes.  They do get big though, don't they?

  4. No,they're too small to harm humans.
