new vft from supplier a month ago and i think i might have got something extra.

Can the holes be created by some insect or some decease?

The bug doesn't look like a problem bug, the holes look like what wasps can sometimes do to a trap if caught

That's a mosquito. Not harmful to the VFT, but it can be a good source of nutrients for it. :)

I doubt it's insect.
