Yes. I know this because I have squashed enough. Some have black blood, some red like us.

They don't have blood like ours. For humans and most other animals blood is used to transfer nourishment and oxygen throughout our bodies. Insects however don't breathe like we do so they don't need blood that can carry large amounts of oxygen. Insects get air through a large number of small holes in their bodies. The holes simply allow air to flow in and out of the body which provides air for everything. This is also why we don't have insects that are the size of dogs. Their system of breathing is not efficient enough to supply air to large bodies. This was not always true however... before the dinosaurs there was a period where the atmosphere was very oxygen rich and there were insects that were about the size of dogs and such....

Most have open circulatory systems; their blood doesn't flow through veins, but their entire body is like one big pool of blood.
