Every summer, more than 1.5 million Americans find themselves in emergency rooms after bites of insects living on the back yards of private houses, public lawns for barbecue, in parks and forests. By the middle of July, the number of flying and crawling pests reaches a record high, so the me decided to pay increased attention to dangerous insects.
At once I will note that from an unpleasant meeting with an insect no one is insured. As an example, we can cite the case that occurred recently in California.At once I will note that from an unpleasant meeting with an insect no one is insured. As an example, we can cite the case that occurred recently in California.
The owner of the luxurious mansion came out into the courtyard early in the morning to drink a cup of coffee in the fresh air, and immediately was attacked by a special one. A few minutes after the bite, he died of anaphylactic shock, caused by the strongest allergy to the poison of the insect.
Of course, the chances of dying from a bite of a bee or a wasp in the United States are about the same as dying from a lightning strike. However, if you take all the insects that are dangerous to humans in the period from May to September, and divide them into back-yard owners and outdoor enthusiasts, the result will be alarming: flying and creeping insects bite every 25th American.
So, for a start, we'll stop at the most dangerous insects.
Absolute leadership in the current summer season is kept by mosquitoes. According to the latest data from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than 3,500 species of mosquitoes live on the territory of America. However, only the females of some species, who are in dire need of protein for the production of eggs, bite people.
Studies have shown that the adult male white males have the greatest chances of becoming a victim of mosquito attack. Miniature women and children, bloodsuckers bite much less often.
American mosquitoes suffer a number of dangerous diseases - the West Nile virus, yellow fever, dengue, chikungunyu, etc. The only illness from which Americans are insured for 99.9% is malaria. However, in African countries thousands of people die from malarial mosquitoes every month.
In second place in terms of danger - mites. If you live in Virginia, Maine, Wisconsin, Minnesota or Northern California - be especially vigilant. The tick of the variety blacklegged deer mites moves with the help of animals, birds and quite often bites a person. These mites can be carriers of Lyme disease, the chronic form of which can result in death or lifelong disability.
Anti-ticks experts recommend that people who return from nature carefully examine the body. If you notice a sucking mite - immediately go to the hospital, do not try to remove the mite yourself. After a bite, you have about 36 hours to prevent infection in the blood.
Bees and wasps (bees & wasps). Bees bring Americans not only honey, but also pain with suffering. The biggest harm to the human body is caused by such varieties as Yellowjackets, Africanized killer bees, as well as wasps and hornets.
In Florida, there was a case when the son and father were playing back-yard in baseball and accidentally hit the ball in an aspen nest under the roof of the house. The insects bite people, and within minutes the faces of both victims swam to such an extent that they could not see anything.
"I touched my neighbors to ask them to call an ambulance," the head of the family said.
In addition to these insects, flies and ants are a significant danger to humans. They are capable of carrying about one hundred harmful microorganisms.
Do not believe it, but even a 5-second stay on ant or fly products can lead to sad consequences.
The person who has eaten this product, can get into the hospital with poisoning or begin to suffocate from an allergic reaction.
Now about the most important.
Residents of private homes with back yards can guarantee themselves a summer without insects, if planted with substances that repel insects.
One hundred years ago, these plants were the most reliable way to get rid of buzzing, flying and creeping creatures, but the rapid development of the chemical industry and, as a result, the appearance of ointments, sprays, deodorants, candles and patches made Americans forget about the unique properties of the flora.
