Yes there were bugs in the Mesozoic Era.
Any non aquatic arthropods are generally considered bugs but this is incorrect. However Insects, millipedes, arachnids and most other creatures considered bugs all evolved in the Paleozoic Era before the Mesozoic Era. Most orders have survived until modern days.
More correctly, bugs are an order of insects named Hemiptera and are defined by their mouths evolving into proboscis surrounded by a hard beak like labium. They eat by piercing tissue (normally plants) and sucking up the fluid. They first evolved in the Upper Pennsylvanian Epoch of the Carboniferous Period in the Paleozoic Era. They have lived on Earth ever since thought the Paleozoic Era into the Mesozoic Era and into the Cenozoic Era. Many species can still be found today.
Yes, there were bugs during the Cretaceous period, which lasted from around 145 to 66 million years ago. Insects were diverse and abundant during this time, with many different species thriving in various ecosystems around the world.

The Jurassic Period is longer than the Cretaceous Period. The Jurassic Period lasted from around 201 to 145 million years ago, while the Cretaceous Period lasted from around 145 to 66 million years ago.
What era did the archelon live?
Archelon, a giant sea turtle, lived during the Late Cretaceous period, around 70-65 million years ago. They were one of the largest known sea turtles, with a shell reaching up to 4.5 meters in length.
What animals are still alive today that also lived in the cretaceous ages?
Some animals that are still alive today and lived during the Cretaceous period include crocodiles, turtles, and some species of sharks. These creatures have remained largely unchanged in their basic form for millions of years.
