So it takes so long for us humans to react because of our reaction time. Why our reaction time is so high is partly due to the fact our brains have many distant parts that are communicating to them. It takes time for our nerves to send signals up to our brain, especially if it’s our feet, or something far like that. However, with small bugs they do not need to worry much about a long distance such as 5 to 6 feet a signal has to travel through nerves (like us with our feet). Instead, it’s very small, and they are hard wired with reflexes instead of thinking for every decision. Therefore their reaction times are much higher as there is less input time.
