wow at first i thought you meant how are insects useful to plants that eat them... but i guess you mean insects as a general usefullness to plants... its probably too broad to answer correctly... but commonly they help disperse pollen, as with bees... or when they eat the fruit and defecate the seeds elsewhere... and insects also can eat other insects tht prey on the plant... they also trim and pare the plant naturally... and lastly they keep it company... plants cant move and really can get quite lonely sometimes...

Do you mean plants? They can eat other insects that eat the plant, and flying bugs like bees spread pollen to other plants so they can grow.

Insects are vital to the sexual reproduction of plants. Without them, those plants that reproduce sexually would not be able to reproduce at all. Only those plants that reproduce asexually could survive. Jules, Lecturer. Australia.

insects are useful to plants because they help in pollinating other plants.
