Operation Insect-Ectomy
Six words have had their insects removed. The insects have been placed into Group A. The remaining letters of each word have been placed into Group B. Your task is to reconstitute the words by merging each insect with the proper set of letters. Other than merging the two groups together, there is no rearranging of the letters. Example: sand + pne = spanned (SpANneD).
Group A: bee, flea, locust, moth, termite, wasp
Group B: asmnt, frilturi, ineda, inunz, rhi, veru
