As a simple answer, yes, insects do drink in
the same way as other animals, but there is a little more to it than that.
Firstly, it depends on the rest of the insect's diet as you rightly point
out. Many herbivorous insects get the majority, if not all, of their fluid
from the food they eat because vegetation has such a high water content. I
have some tropical stick insects and they certainly get all their water
from the leaves they eat, although they are kept in a damp environment. It
is also worth noting that their mouthparts are not particularly effective
for drawing water anyway.
It is not uncommon for insects to drink from the morning dew, from
raindrops, or from the surfaces or edges of ponds. Leave a damp tissue out
on a hot day (make it bright yellow to attract the most insects) and watch
them come in to drink. If you watch with a magnifying glass you will see
that they have many different ways of doing it; flies suck it up, and
wasps use a tiny structure that looks much like a tongue. While mentioning
wasps, it is worth thinking about nest building which is done by biting
tiny pieces of wood and bark and chewing them into a paste from which the
nest is made. This requires water and so the wasp needs to take on
moisture for this purpose too. I have two giant millipedes (not insects,
but arthropods all the same) that augment their cucumber and tomato diet
with a considerable amount of water that they draw from the damp soil
around them.
As a general rule, the ability to go without water is confined to small
animals, and the larger an animal is, the more it depends on water. This
could suggest why the bigger insects are usually to be found in warm wet
places such as the rainforests.
Finally, to answer your question about carnivorous insects, lets look at
robber flies and mantids. Both are ambush style predators, one of which is
common worldwide, whereas the other is usually only found in warmer
climates. Both have a diet that is made up of prey, but the robber fly
will take juice from fruit and the mantis will sip water from leaves when
it gets thirsty.

they drink water, or their pee

Hike in a group, drink lots of water, bring small snacks, bring insect spray, sunscreen, and a hat.
They eat small insects like flies, grasshoppers, crickets, small earthworms, basically any insect that can fit in his mouth. They drink non-chlorine water in a shallow dish so it wont drown.
they both drink dew or water droplets, the damselfly eats any insect that is smaller than itself. The dragonfly is the same, although sometimes it will eat an insect slightly bigger than itself
The Christmas beetle is found in Australia and are so named because they show up very close to Christmas. They do not drink water but they do get moisture from things they eat such as grasses and leaves.
It cant't be because they only drink nectar and pollen. A spider is a insect of prey, though and you can see why
Yes! Don't eat it or drink it
A Mojito is an alcoholic drink containing mostly Rum. A Mosquito is an insect found in almost every climate on earth.
Oak leaves and blackberry vines and rose petals. Brambles and privet. Lettuce or Cucumber are said to be suitable, but your mileage may vary.rose or bramble leavesThey eat other smaller bugs like aphids.
