It is left to human nature. Nature means what human generally do in such dietary matters. Mostly they do not eat insects except for some. Same goes for reptiles. They do not eat them except for a few. So here, the ruling comes from human nature, not from the Shariah.

The cochineal is a scale insect in the suborder Sternorrhyncha, from which the natural dye carmine is derived. A primarily sessile parasite native to tropical and subtropical South America through North America, this insect lives on cacti in the genus Opuntia, feeding on plant moisture and nutrients.

Is this halal? Does it change its form?

Ahmad please read Dr. Irfan Shahzad sahab’s response above and understand the principle. He won’t comment on each insect you post separately.
