Fascinating subject 
Inter-animal communication is one of those frontiers of science which we have yet to master. I'm always amazed when I see close-up pictures of beetles with complex antennae, and wonder if they're able to pick up digital TV. http://www.texasento.net/Phengodes.htm
When we understand the signals which drive them, we should logically be able to communicate with them via a TV remote control device
Maybe I'd better apply for the world-wide patent before it's too late

Wow, remote control beetles - what a thought. Do you think we could get them to do our bidding?
