Some people do write it in kanji even though close to none actually like the kanji because of the "bug" radical.
Yes, I was quite shocked. I don't know if I've ever seen it in kanji (or, at the least, recognized it when I saw it). Apparently it has something to do with ancient Chinese beliefs about a rainbow or something.

When I read it here, I thought it was 蛙 by mistake and was about to ask OP how he got a frog out of a rainbow.
