I don't think you need the new mob in the parenthesis. Also, specify the location. Ex :
//make it papear at the usr's location :
var/mob/bug/bug = new
bug.loc = usr.loc//you can do this since you defined the new mob as the bug var

// -or-

//a specific location
bug.loc = locate(1,1,1)

In response to Mecha Destroyer JD
it gives me another error:
Invalid proc definition

MakeBug
var/mob/bug/bug = new
bug.loc = usr.loc //location
bug.loc = locate (1,1,1)

Please use
tags. And that was an example, apparantly you didn't get it.

mob/verb/Make_Bug() // This is a new verb, must have opening and closing parenthesis no matter what.
    var/mob/bug/bug=new(locate(1,1,1)) // This defines a variable called bug, which states that there is to be a new /mob/bug if the coordinates 1,1,1 are located, at 1,1,1.


However, what you want to do is, if you aren't going to use a "bug" var..
mob/verb/Make_Bug()
    new /mob/bug(usr.loc) // This can be replaced with new /mob/bug(locate(1,1,1))
