    Can anyone smarter than I am tell me how 30 million of estimated species of insects ( male and female ) survived the flood?

    Did Noah gather them all and take them into the ark?

    The eggs and pupae survived the flood waters.

    It's a good question, if the flood actually happened.

    I think jgnat's answer could be right, if there was a flood

    I think there was a flood, but only of the known world of the writer. Which could have been a portion of the Middle East only.

    At the end of the last ice age, sea levels rose considerable. Many advanced cities and civilisation were lost. But! There was plenty of dry land around for lots of insect species etc to survive on.

    Im not saying that I believe in the bible flood. But if there was a flood insects could be in wood and various enviroments that were not permeated by water even though they were under water. They could have been in air tight caves under water. The caves could have been sealed by earthquakes when the flood began.They could have been in containers that were sealed, or water tight. Some creationist believe in adaptation which simplified would say that 30 million species of insects might come from 100 insects. What creationist take exception with, in my observance is that a bird did not come from a fish, that man did not come from fish. I dont know whether I believe in creation or evolution I am just trying to answer your question above.
