These insects need special attention
Paederus:
You can't shoot, you can't beat
Named for the invisible wings. Paederus toxicosis is a threat to human beings because of its toxic liquid. This poisonous Paederus is 0.6 to 0.8 cm long, similar to flying ants. There are no glands outside the body of Paederus, and the venom will flow out after being killed. The toxin can cause skin inflammation when it comes into contact with the skin. Therefore, if you have this kind of insect, you can't shoot or beat it.
Tick:
Don't pull the insect with your hand directly after being bitten
Ticks mainly invade the skin of the human body. After sucking blood, they will drill into the body of people or animals, which is difficult to pull out. Therefore, when it is found that the tick bites, do not directly remove or even crush it by hand, but use tweezers or sharp pliers to close to the skin and clamp the head of the tick, and then slowly press the tick out. After removing the tick, use iodine or alcohol to disinfect the bitten part, wash hands with soap and water, and then see a doctor in time to avoid missing the best treatment opportunity.
A tsutsugamushi mite:
Favorite biting lower body
Tsutsugamushi likes to bite people's lower body. When people are bitten, they will enter a incubation period of about 10 days. Eschar on the skin is a typical feature. In order to prevent this kind of insect, we should pay attention to avoid sitting and resting in the grass or bushes or drying clothes and quilts in outdoor activities. When entering the grass or bushes, we should tighten the cuffs and trouser tubes, and put the shirt into the waistband to reduce the chance of being bitten by chigger mites. It can also spray repellent such as qujieling on the exposed skin for protection.
