The larvae (babies) eat worms, snails & slugs.
The adults possibly eat other fireflies sometimes, and pollen, and also drink nectar. This is just a theory, as no one is completely certain. Some think they don't eat anything.

The larvae of most species are specialized predators and feed on other larvae, terrestrial snails, and slugs. The diet of adults is not entirely clear. It has been reported that some are predatory and some feed on plant pollen or nectar.
