where do fireflys come from?

Answer 1

Fireflies overwinter (sometimes for several years, depending on the species) during the larval stage by burrowing underground and emerge in the spring. After several weeks of feeding, they pupate for 2-2.5 weeks and emerge as adults.

A few days after mating, a fertilized female will lay her eggs on or just below the surface of the ground. The eggs will hatch in 3-4 weeks and the larva will feed until the end of the summer when they will burrow underground to overwinter.

Answer 2

Most firefly larvae are found in rotting wood or other forest litter or on the edges of streams and ponds at night. Some Asian species are fully aquatic (due to the presence of tracheal gills) and live underwater, feeding on aquatic snails. The larvae of several tropical firefly species in the genus Pyractomena are strictly arboreal, feed on arboreal snails and pupate while hanging under living leaves - similar to a butterfly chrysalis (Lloyd 1991).
Adult fireflies are found in the same general habitats as their larvae. Generally speaking, the highest number of firefly species are found in warm, humid areas of the world. Some species, however, are found in very arid regions of the world. In these arid regions, larvae and adults can be readily found following rains. The greatest number of firefly species (highest species diversity) are found in tropical Asia and Central and South America. Many firefly species tend to be found around water such as ponds, streams, marshes or even depressions, ditches, etc., that may retain moisture longer then surrounding areas. However, fireflies are also found in very dry regions of the world as well.

Alas, it's a by-product of our disregard for the environment. You see, evil people in the world have been careless with petroleum products. They have spilled them onto Mother Earth. Her delicate body- which was nurturing the baby sarchophigillicus larvae- became wretchedly soaked with the deadly petroleum products...the larvae hatched,and feebily worked their way to the scarred and man-tortured surface. When, in the heat of the day, the fumes from the chemicals formed a small blister on the weakest part of the sarchophigillicus, taking several hours to produce a reaction (usually around dusk) they internally combust. Flying as frantically as they can,their wings can only extinguish the flame after several hours (usually around dawn) Mother Earth weeps...oh yes, she weeps.
