A few years ago while walking through my neighborhood with a friend and my dogs we saw a suspicious-looking yellow and black flying creature. In a panic my friend started screaming that it was a murder Hornet and running down the block. It was a beautiful day and everyone was sitting out on their front lawn those who saw her running down the street and heard her screaming started getting up and running with her it wasn't a murder hornet, it was a cicada killer. My friend and I never walk down that block again.
@M Y T H I C A L N O V A I'm sorry to hear about your puppy. I lost my two dog last year around the end of summer. My boxer was 13 years old that I had to put her down and then my dachshund mix passed away about a month or so later from a broken heart. It's hard but I keep pushing through. Trying to decide if I want another puppy
For those who have problems with things such as bedbugs, here's a useful tip: use lavender. Lavender has properties that make it repellant to insects, including bedbugs. For things such as ants, you can also use diatomaceous earth, which can dry them up without hurting people.
We have a species of that blister beetle called "bobo" in northwestern Nigeria. They usually fly around white light at night and are more common during the raining season. If their fluid happens to touch your skin, a blister erupts (I have personally experienced it). And folktale has it that if it falls into any food or drink material, ingesting them proves fatal.
Btw don’t ever try to capture a murder hornet because first this bug is also known as the John wick of bugs because it has a photographic memory and will remember you till it’s last dying breath and if you try to capture it and fail it will try and kill you whenever it sees you
Y'all forgot to add to the tick part, rocky mountain spotted fever from the deer tick. My son was bitten by a tick in 2002 and contacted rocky mountain spotted fever at the age of 4 and half. He had a fever for 7 days then the rash, he was hospitalized for 5 days to receive antibiotics. He recovered just fine.
I knew about it, I actually used to like it when I was like 6-7 years old and my sad would tell me to turn it off because it was weird, similar to this other cartoon called Booba, about an elf creature thing tgat does mischief, but he’s the only character, so it’s quite boring, liked that around the same time as the larva cartoon.
I'm in Zambia and I can tell you I get bitten by mosquitoes more than 50 times a day, once you stand close to grass they track you down , even in socks they bite and it's very irritating. To a point where I got immunity I last had malaria in 2009.
At least there better than ticks, ticks will probably give you problems and suck more blood and give you more diseases, not saying mosquitoes are good either
One devastating experience I've had with a tick is Lyme Disease. When I was approximately 7 years old, I had woken up to a a strangely large knee. I showed it to my anatomist mom, and she figured out that last summer, I had a tick in my neck. We thought it had been in there for 24 hrs. minimum. I had joint pain for a whole 2nd grade school year. We put the puzzle pieces together, and we got the conclusion that Lyme Disease spread to my right knee and inflamed the fluids under my kneecap. Not cool. When I got the tick, my pediatrician said "You probably don't have Lyme Disease. It is very rare." She then did not treat it, and we switched pediatricians soon after the incident. Now I'm in the hospital getting an IV. I tested positive. We dropped out of sports the day before. Good move! I was in school, but this time, with crutches. On the bright side, I always walked with my crutches, and then I would lift them up and start walking normally. (I could still walk, just not well.) I will never forget that tick.
As a kid I lived in Key West, Florida in the 50’s for a couple of years. They used DDT to fight off the mosquitoes. Mosquitoes can also be found in the Cascade Mountains in Oregon as well as eastern Oregon.
I'm a pediatric nurse and in medicine "Beetle Juice" is often used to treat molluscum contagiosum (and sometimes warts though cryotherapy tends to be the first choice for them)
@@sergeantpeppers8858 I know, I know - we all ask this too at first! 😆 It's just beetle juice - like the bug and the drink. It's the stuff from the blister beetle the narrator had mentioned
When I was in the Army, standing for hours on end securing a vehicle inside a fenced off security zone, I started naming the bugs that came near me. Yeah, I was that bored. Then a mosquito dropped by and landed on the back of my hand. I watched as it started drinking. Then I clinched my fist tightening the skin on my hand that the mosquito was on. Apparently my skin tightened around the sucker part of the mosquito. It tried and tried to pull out but couldn't and the blood pressure was forcing blood into the skeeter making it swell. Eventually it couldn't hold anymore and POP. It exploded. My eyes grew huge with excitement. I don't know how many skeeters I popped that day, but it passed the time. I'd also get some to the point of POPPING and let them go. Some were so full they couldn't fly. They'd sit on me, flapping their wing as hard as they could but were just too heavy. Ah, good times.
Right now mosquitos are terrorizing me and the buzzing is just terrible. Anyway I just let them bite but this video has totally changed my view on mosquitos.
When I was a little kid, my uncle taught me how to deal with skitters: pinch up the area of skin around where the little bugger is feeding, and then it cannot withdraw it's proboscis and keeps on drinking until it explodes just like in this video. It's very satisfying, though it does leave you with a bit of clean-up after, and you still have the itchy bite to deal with. But at least you can take your revenge beforehand!
@@calliopec544 Oh, it's very true. You have to be fast though. It can be hard to get the pinch on in time before the little bugger escapes. It's more of an instinct to smash it, so it may not work the first couple times, but eventually you will catch your first. And it is SATISFYING!
Had Dengue fever about 20 years ago, it was a 1-week hell - forget the fever and itching rash Got a head-splitting headache because of photophobia, my eyes felt they were on a vise, my body felt like someone beat all my body with a baseball bat (that's why Dengue fever is also called "breakbone fever") and all I wanted was to take some pain killer (no aspirin!!) and sleep until it was over - only leaving the bed to go to the restroom and to bath
And one thing you forgot to mention about tics that is super disturbing is that you should never try to pull out a tic with your bare hands or swipe it off in disgust after seeing it on you, the reason being that if a tic is pulled away too quickly and imprecisely, its head is so deep in your skin, gorging on your blood, that its head will get torn off inside your skin! 🤢 It will then rot underneath your skin, causing irritation in the area and nasty infections. There are lots of species out there that are bad for us but are vital to the natural ecosystem, but I fail to see how these little abominations serve any positive purpose other than a disgusting snack for desperate animals with nothing better to eat. Would it be safe to say that the world wouldn't lose anything if tics went extinct?
My home was invaded by bedbugs. To get rid of them i had to call a firm that freezes all of your furniture and clothes. Then they spray your home with a dangerous insecticide that can hurt people. So for two hole days i had to live with my parents.
Another thing about the elephant mosquito: they also eat other mosquito larvae when they are young ,so not only are they important pollinators, but also act as a control system for other mosquitoes!
I often had a hornet (~3cm long) on my window's insect net. These things are basically your ordinary wasp but scaled up a lot. When they arrive, you'll hear them, it sounds like a full-throttle cessna, just a bit less loud. They are less aggressive than the small hornets (it's harder to provoke them to sting you) but when they do it gets dangerous after only a few doses. And I also once had a mosquito at the same insect net that systematically poked into every hole of the grid of small lines that make up the insect net within a square decimeter. I watched it as it crawled (Yes, when they really want to they can crawl!) along the net in rows, poking into each hole expecting to taste blood. It gave up after half an hour and buzzed off again with this nasty whining sound.
So I'm from mid to south Alabama and I've only seen mosquitoes as these huge insects with big wings, spindly legs, and that terrifying mouth/needle thing that they use to suck the blood out of you...fastforward to 2008 and I've moved to Kentucky, and my SO is complaining about all the mosquitoes, and how they're so annoying, and I'm literally confused bc I haven't seen one mosquitoe since I moved to Tennessee/Kentucky (I'm on the border of the states)...but still I don't say anything, I'm still new to the area and new to the relationship...again, fastforward to 2011 and it's a particularly hot summer and I see this insects that are smaller than flys but bigger that gnats, and my SO is like, "all these damn mosquitoes!"...I'm like, "WHAT MOSQUITOES!?!" I basically think he's crazy...and that's the year that I learn that mosquitoes aren't always huge with huge curled up needle mouths like in Alabama!! I honestly didn't believe him at first and actually googled it bc I thought he was crazy!! But no...he's not crazy...they literally come in every shape and size and are still technically mosquitoes!! For three years I just assumed my husband didn't know what he was talking about, and the whole time, I was the one who didn't understand that they literally come in all shapes and sizes!! Moral of the story: don't just assume something bc it's all you've ever known in one state...other states have the same issues, but with some slight differences🤷♀️🤦♀️
I remember my mom caught dengue fever while she was pregnant with my little brother. We lived in an area where people littered on the road and that caught a lot of mosquitos. Both my mom and my dad were admitted to the hospital immediately and I was sent to live with my grandparents. Thankfully my little brother was ok and he wasnt harmed and both my parents recovered fast. Its so heart breaking to find out that many people around the world didnt make it😭😭 The horrible experience I had with bugs were TICKS soo annoying😤😤😤 I remember after a visit to my grandparents house, I saw something black in belly, at first I thought to was a birth mark but imagine my surprise when I saw LEGS!? I showed it to my mom and she said that it was a tick and that we had to remove it asap. I really didnt get what the big deal was but after my mom told me how dangerous they were I nearly peed my pants. All of these happened while I was in Sri Lanka which is where Im from but I moved to Finland last December and here because of the deadly winter no mosquitos nor ticks are found, not sure when the spring arrives they'll pop out too but I suggest y'all to move here 😐😐
I once got dengue from a sting of a mosquito. Trust me. No matter how tough or macho you think you are, dengue renders our bodies weak to the point moving around is already difficult. My brother also got one back in early 2017 (i got it in 2nd half of 2016). I got bigger build than him so i could move around a little bit. He, on the other hand, found it hard to even get up from the bed.
I do appreciate it, though I wish he had also warned against pulling a tick straight out- everyone be careful, since ticks are also infamous for having their mouthparts be able to come off and continue infecting the host if the rest of the tick is forcefully removed!
when I was a kid, I got bitten by a mosquito that carries dengue. I was at my death point and my parents didn't notice it. I was absent for 3 days and on my 3rd day, I was dying. you will feel sleepy but you can't for some reason because of the sunlight. I slept for 48 hours without eating or drinking even. my fever goes up and down constantly. After being confined in the hospital, my chances of living are 20/50. I was in a coma too. I'm glad I am still alive today.
They don’t wanna hurt you just stand still and pretend your not there close your eyes if you have to if it lands on you don’t panic it thinks your a flower continue being a flower until It flies away the little guys like bright clothing bc it resebles their flowers unless you try to swat kill or do anything to kill it then you will get stung if you don’t want it to die after stinging you grab the stinger while the bee it still stuck remove the stinger and the bee along with it and let go and it’ll fly away when you don’t do that the bee will fly away and the guts fly out behind them a vital organ and the intestines come out with the stinger making the poor thing drop dead
I was in an apartment building once that a neighbor had brought in Bed Bugs, the multiplied and bread, then they spread to all the apartments. There were so many. I still remember once exact moment of feeling one crawl on my chest, under my shirt. It felt like sweat dripping down and it was hot then, so I checked anyway and there it was. I got that thing off me fast. I had to vacuum EVERYWHERE in the apartment constantly, including where the wall connects to the floor because of cracks behind the moldings. It was ALOT of work to vacuum so much every day to keep them out of my space. Don't know why it took so long to have pest control come in, when the Super Attendant knew about it before it got extreme. BTW, one of the couple who brought them into the building from a mattress taken from trash died soon after this started getting extreme.
You live in an apartment! Good for you! It’s very easy to move since you aren’t tied down to that place like you would be if you were in a house, ergo, it’s easier to move! Bye bye!
Serious question: I grew up in Alabama, where mosquitoes were huge, but while everyone was using bug spray, and candles to keep mosquitoes away, I've NEVER had a problem with them. Seriously, I'd be at a pool party or bonfire party, and I'd see people swatting at them, but I've literally and honestly never had a problem! I was told it's a pheromone thing, but is that true? Are they drawn to pheromones or is it something else? Bc I swear I've never used bug spray or repellent candles and I've never ever had a problem with mosquitoes biting me or bothering me...🤷♀️
Late response! As someone else who lives (and grew up in Alabama), I never had a problem with mosquitoes either. I genuinely don’t know what it is, but it’s strange.
Though I was very sceptical, I decided to buy a plug-in bug "putter-offer" (I can't remember the real word lol!) It has a blue light and apparently emits a very high-pitched sound which annoys mozzies (it doesn't bother the dog). Surprisingly, it worked! I had a multipack, so one went in my bedroom and another in our boat. The number of bugs on the boat dropped dramatically and as long as I have it switched on, I don't get any in my bedroom. I'm _not_ promising that they work under all circumstances, but if you're somewhere that there are biting bugs, this is worth a crack. IIRC they cost me about £10 for two or three of them (I wouldn't have bothered if they were more expensive!) Re tics, DON'T use ordinary tweezers to remove them! Buy a pair of proper tic removers (it's like tweezers, a single item known as a pair... I guess it's because there are two "legs" or "arms", depending on your POV?) Anyway, it's essential to do that or else you could end up leaving the heads still attached or the mouthparts under the skin. If you have any pets, particularly those which can go through grassland, check them _every day_ for tics, especially if they have thick coats - check all the way down to the skin. I know that's going to be difficult but it's essential. If you don't, you could end up losing them, or losing a lot of money at the vet. (I _think_ there are animal shampoos which can get rid of them, so check that out. A regular bath might be the "easier" thing to do with some animals!) Aussies will undoubtedly know all about the dangers of a particular tic they have there that can kill a smaller animal in a matter of hours. This is how seriously it must be taken! If you can't remove a tic from your pet, it's worth the emergency late night fees (because it's always going to be then! It's never during their opening hours... 🤦🏻♀️) to take them to the vet's and have them remove it _before_ they get sick. I'll emphasize this - particularly in countries where tics carry diseases: check them _every single day!_ If you only have time to do it once, make it part of the routine for after their final trip outside. If possible, check them after each time out, particularly if you're walking them in long grass. You yourself should wear long leg jeans or something equally thick and tuck them into long socks, even in the hot weather. It's the best way to protect yourself if you _must_ go through grass. If you can keep the walk to a grass-free or short grass area, that's by far the best option. Sorry for sounding like a particularly annoying mum, but I am one, and I can't abide the thought of any creature (human or otherwise) suffering from something preventable. Take care out there, especially as the weather warms up. With climate change, it's going to be a much earlier time for them to appear. I've found nonnative mosquitoes in the UK - some flipping huge ones! - in the last 4-5 years, and woke up with bites all down the outside of my right hand. Within a day, they'd all gone huge and full of pus, and they itched like crazy. As we were on the water at the time I couldn't get to see anyone so I ended up cutting them open with a sterilized blade and draining them until the blood ran clear. Then I packed each one full of antibiotic cream and covered my hand up. Fortunately, it worked, but that's got to be last resort territory!
Up here in Alaska, the Mosquito is called our 'State Bird', because of how prominent they are during the summer. When one lands in you, as kids, we would tighten our skin with our free hand while they are biting you, and they will literally drink your blood until they pop, which, is gross, but at least it's one less mosquito... Hah! ✌️😎🤙
If it weren't for the anti-coagulants and deadly disease spreading, the state bird of Minnesota, the mosquito, wouldn't be so bad, I would just let them have a drink. BUT I HATE THEM WITH A PASSION BECAUSE OF THE ITCHY!
There was a tick on me not to long ago but a friend pointed it out before it bit me it looked like it had stag 2 maybe 3 lime disease🦠 but it needs to be 7,8 or 9 before it is too bad. I think? So no reel threat for me that time but lime disease will make joints harder to move and more staff so it is bad be careful. “U should check google for the affects of lime disease just to be safe”
Due to the high occurrence of commercial fraud, consumers are afraid to invest. Scammers exist, but there are also legitimate brokers available to investors.
@@mikewilson2967 You are entirely correct, however there are also many knowledgeable, genuine candidates with certificates and firm IDS waiting for investment.
I've been killing mosquitoes and flies since. One time I was outside and a mosquito landed on my clothes. It flew on to my arm and I approached it slowly, before high speed swatted it down. Washed my arm and hand afterward. How to kill flies: 1: Take off your slipper like an Asian parent 2: Wait for it to land OR take off both slippers (Holding each in separate hands) 3: Apporach it very slowly making sure it won't fly away (Until swatting distance) 4: Hit it incredibly fast 5: Repeat steps 1 - 4
In just a week ago my sister is now in heaven because of the mosquitoe i was soo sad why soo early she died in age of 10 years old why i still crying today
Being an average boy here in the Philippines, i've been bitten by mosquitoes since i was 4. 11 years went by and now i'm like, immune to almost every mosquito virus, been there, done that. Now the worst thing the mosquitoes bring me is an itchy rash that goes away in an hour or so.
As a kid i went on holiday a ton of times but one morning i woke up with about ten bites alll over my body i was so confused so i called my doctor and he said he didnt know what was the matter so i woke up the next morning with about ten more bites! I put a mosquito plug in and next day nothing changed i still had 10 more bites! so i put on mosquito rist band and the plug so the next day i still had 10 more bites so i decided to go home early
I went to Nigeria in 2016 or something and I can confirm that mosquitos are annoying and spread malaria in your sleep mostly. I am the youngest child, and I got infected first in my sleep, then my older brother, on his sleep again, then my older sister got infected on her sleep after my brother, and my cousin in Nigeria got it as well. Usually you go to sleep wake up and you have malaria the next day, what happened was, I woke up and my vision was blurry then I kept closing my eyes going in and out if sleep not even hearing anything, a doctor came to see me but then he went and disappeared my siblings said there was no doctor, and now after revisiting there in 2022 and it turns out the doctor was just one of my uncles
Everyone in my whole family got late Lyme disease, including our dog who passed away about a month ago. After we found out we all took antibiotics and went keto. Now, we are all doing much better although my dad and my sister are still struggling with it but they also have bartenella and kandita. :(
I live in Brazil and i got Dengue Fever last year, i don't wish that thing even to my worst enemy, made me feel like garbage for a full week, the worst thing to me was how bitter my saliva was, anything i tried to eat was bitter as hell as result, even water, and since you need water to counter fever, you gotta do what you gotta and i drank a bunch of bitter water for a full week, as for the fever i could control with regular medicine but it would never completely wear off, it's a thing that haunted me a full week and they say if you get it a second time it can be a lot worse. These mosquitos are the scourge!
Your not supposed to just pull a tick off though....99% of the time it's head will be stuck in your skin still allowing the disease to still infect...your supposed to put a flame near them or suffocate with butter or similar, or gently twist counterclockwise
No you tie a string near the mouth and pull at it don’t use tweezers will make you sick if you accidentally popped their body there mouth is like a straw that can puke up food like a bird.
I'm a city boy, dont have country in my genes at all. Born and raised in the city my whole life. Unfortunately the college I went to was in a country area, go figure. Anyways, some old friends of mine once decided to go on a joy ride through the country. Tall grass, corn fields, all that country person stuff, and it was a surprisingly amazing time. Especially when night time hit and the moon and stars were on full display, man it was absolutely beautiful. I guess sort of like a Dukes of Hazard thing. But the time came for us to go back home and as we were heading back they looked back and told me "Hey man, be sure to check your whole entire body AND your clothes and take a shower as soon as you get home. But check your clothes thoroughly". I asked why and they said "If you see anything, then you'll know exactly why, if not, then you have nothing to worry about". This obviously concerned me because I had no clue what that meant. Got back home and immediately took their advice because they spooked me out. Now up til that point in my life I had never seen a tick personally, but I knew what they looked like and what they did. Most especially because of that old 90s movie about deadly ticks. But I looked and saw one, thankfully, crawling on my arm instead of already being burrowed in it. I instinctively swiped it, flushed it down the drain, stripped in the bathroom and began to stomp all over my clothes and immediately tossed them in the wash and hopped directly in the shower and washed myself for about 15-20 minutes. I knew all about ticks and what they were capable of and I was terrified to have one crawling on me. Havent been back to the countryside ever since.
It only takes 24 hours for a tick to transmit a disease. If the tick has been latched to your body for more than 24 hours, seek medical attention as fast as you can. It also helps to bring the tick for analysis, so that other diseases can be tested.
Bedbugs not only live in your mattress, they also live in the cracks in the floor, and the walls, box-spring, picture frames, your couch, and loveseat, and everywhere else roaches can be found nesting Moreover, Bedbugs don't only feed at night they will feed on you during the day if you work nights. This is first-hand experience, how did I get rid of em I vacuumed everywhere every day for 11 days straight, destroyed all the eggs I could find on day one, and vacuumed every bedbug I saw. On day 12, I didn't see any new signs of bedbugs, nor did I see anymore, but yes, you can see bedbugs in the same places you see the moldings. Also the speed the experts claim is Bedbugs top speed is drastically slower then the top speed I seen a few move I thought they were roaches and when I had the roach kill equipment in hand I moved the crib mattress and saw they were Bedbugs not roaches so I got the vacuum. So here are more facts that the experts don't know yet. You're welcome
I live in Africa and I asked contact malaria a few times a year and it's horrible. The constant vomiting, dizziness and the side effects of the drugs are worse. I often wonder whether I would be better the just use natural remedies instead of drugs
I am so sorry for your loss and I hope you find peace in your heart and soul and that you find peace and peace in your life and that you will be able to get through this difficult time with your family and friends and that’s what random things do if you just tap every first thing
for a fact, in my country (ill tell u its not Africa) the anopheles Gambiae mosquitoes are coming back (well not rlly its been here ever since, but it wasn't active). It wasn't active for 3-5 years. It started about 9-10 weeks ago. The news said it started again because someone dumped 3 bucket of water in soil (idk how that works but. uhm). To today it was estimated 500-590 deaths.
Bed bugs mess with your mental health they can make you seriously paranoid. If you ever had bed bugs, you'll know that they are not easy to get rid of. If you find one and think it's only one 9 times out of 10, they are not the only ones there. They aren't dangerous but they are scary because they can bite you anywhere in your house not just your bed. Most are in your bed but sense you move around in your house they can get on your clothes which means they can be in your backpack, couch, dresser, bathroom, etc. And multiply in those areas. Bed bugs don't die easily, they are resistant to most bug sprays and sense they hide 90% of the time you can't just smack them with a shoe like you would with a spider. Which is why they are hard to get rid of.
Thx for the facts it well be usefull for us and the pictures they help btw i saw a misquito in my nieghboors garden on the bush and ty for all the facts
Always remember when removing these to use a drop or two of alcohol or surgical spirit on a Q-tip, applied to the tick's head. It makes them let go (usually) so that there's no danger of leaving the head in place.
I've seen how big a Bed Bug is capable of getting and that is huge! A couple in an apartment building I used to live in brought in a mattress from trash which brought in the bed bugs, which eventually there was so many, they took over the whole building. When one of them couple died after it got extreme, the mattress was put in the huge garbage bin outdoors covered in these massive, overgrown bugs after pest control was brought in. They were like my 2 thumbs beside each other in size.
Bed bugs don't get this big. Sounds to me that you've encountered a kissing bug (Winchuka). These bugs carry the Chagas disease that can actually kill you.
@@prettyhatemachine8887 We don't get Winchuka here and there is s bit of difference in appearance between the 2. It was also confirmed by pest control to be bed bugs. I assure it is possible for them to get that big. We do get insect mutations happening here from time to time and I've have seen some interesting mutations personally. And with all the electrical stations giving their form of radiation and toxic stuff and chemical products tossed in land fill and just random spot for so long, it's easy enough to have occasional mutations happen. I have seen other insects before get bigger than they are supposed to.
A few day's ago i was siting in a seat in my home and i saw a black and white bug the same you are are talking about,(it had white dot's)i was so scared i rad to my room,locked the door's and use rhe phone...uh-was it full of posin or is all of it like that?
Me after watching the video: *Checks under blankets, breaths through nose, vacuums house, takes a shower, looking at a piece of thread and running away, wears 10 layers of thick coats, pants, shoes, socks, hats, gloves, face masks, and eye covers, moving to the North Pole where no bug lives, riding a polar bear, petting an arctic fox, doing a backflip into the water, swimming with the fishy’s*
FUN FACT The soft bodied tick known as the red velvet tick doesn’t drink human blue it’s fuzzy small and eats bugs and kinda cute looking Btw they are the size of a third of a ant
I live in Greece and OH BOY do these little creeters wreak havoc on our houses during the summer! In my household apparently I have the tastiest blood because I always wake with a pair of new red dots on my legs/hands. The itching is annoying and that's what everyone talks about when mosquitoes come to play. No diseases no nothing. In fact the worst mosquito sting I've seen up close was when my cousin got bit. It started swelling and the redness spread. But that's it. It went away after 4-5 days. Have we just gotten lucky? Or mosquitoes here just think we're not the right people to spread decease to?🤷♀️ Edit: I didn't know there were different species of mosquitoes. I guess we have the ones that are not that dangerous. Phew
Pulling a tick will wrench it’s head off and foster a dangerous infection! The best way is to put a drop of mineral oil on the tick and let it ‘drown’ so it’ll be easier to remove when it lets go in order to breathe.
Wait a second tho, ticks carry the same disease from host a host, so if you’re their first meal as in their very first meal then would happen? Would you still get disease from them?
Important facts about bed bugs: they can live for up to a year without feeding - in including the nymphs. If you get them, there are sites where you can get the chemicals to kill them, and it takes agressive daily to weekly applications for 6 months to a year to get rid of them. It's not easy, but it can be done yourself.
A few years ago while walking through my neighborhood with a friend and my dogs we saw a suspicious-looking yellow and black flying creature. In a panic my friend started screaming that it was a murder Hornet and running down the block.

My friend and I never walk down that block again.

We have a species of that blister beetle called "bobo" in northwestern Nigeria. They usually fly around white light at night and are more common during the raining season. If their fluid happens to touch your skin, a blister erupts (I have personally experienced it). And folktale has it that if it falls into any food or drink material, ingesting them proves fatal.

Y'all forgot to add to the tick part, rocky mountain spotted fever from the deer tick. My son was bitten by a tick in 2002 and contacted rocky mountain spotted fever at the age of 4 and half. He had a fever for 7 days then the rash, he was hospitalized for 5 days to receive antibiotics. He recovered just fine.

The way you put in the cartoon Larva was crazy I honestly didnt think any one else knew about that cartoon.
I knew about it, I actually used to like it when I was like 6-7 years old and my sad would tell me to turn it off because it was weird, similar to this other cartoon called Booba, about an elf creature thing tgat does mischief, but he’s the only character, so it’s quite boring, liked that around the same time as the larva cartoon.
I'm 7 and I watched that when I was 5, good show I miss the old days
I'm in Zambia and I can tell you I get bitten by mosquitoes more than 50 times a day, once you stand close to grass they track you down , even in socks they bite and it's very irritating. To a point where I got immunity I last had malaria in 2009.
At least there better than ticks, ticks will probably give you problems and suck more blood and give you more diseases, not saying mosquitoes are good either

One devastating experience I've had with a tick is Lyme Disease.
When I was approximately 7 years old, I had woken up to a a strangely large knee. I showed it to my anatomist mom, and she figured out that last summer, I had a tick in my neck. We thought it had been in there for 24 hrs. minimum. I had joint pain for a whole 2nd grade school year. We put the puzzle pieces together, and we got the conclusion that Lyme Disease spread to my right knee and inflamed the fluids under my kneecap. Not cool. When I got the tick, my pediatrician said "You probably don't have Lyme Disease. It is very rare." She then did not treat it, and we switched pediatricians soon after the incident.
Now I'm in the hospital getting an IV. I tested positive. We dropped out of sports the day before. Good move! I was in school, but this time, with crutches. On the bright side, I always walked with my crutches, and then I would lift them up and start walking normally. (I could still walk, just not well.)
I will never forget that tick.
As a kid I lived in Key West, Florida in the 50’s for a couple of years. They used DDT to fight off the mosquitoes. Mosquitoes can also be found in the Cascade Mountains in Oregon as well as eastern Oregon.

When I was in the Army, standing for hours on end securing a vehicle inside a fenced off security zone, I started naming the bugs that came near me. Yeah, I was that bored. Then a mosquito dropped by and landed on the back of my hand. I watched as it started drinking. Then I clinched my fist tightening the skin on my hand that the mosquito was on. Apparently my skin tightened around the sucker part of the mosquito. It tried and tried to pull out but couldn't and the blood pressure was forcing blood into the skeeter making it swell. Eventually it couldn't hold anymore and POP. It exploded. My eyes grew huge with excitement.
I don't know how many skeeters I popped that day, but it passed the time.
I'd also get some to the point of POPPING and let them go. Some were so full they couldn't fly. They'd sit on me, flapping their wing as hard as they could but were just too heavy.
Ah, good times.
Always amazing to see Be Amazed
Right now mosquitos are terrorizing me and the buzzing is just terrible. Anyway I just let them bite but this video has totally changed my view on mosquitos.
Theres a spider in the uk thats very small but lethal its called the cotton red spider
When I was a little kid, my uncle taught me how to deal with skitters: pinch up the area of skin around where the little bugger is feeding, and then it cannot withdraw it's proboscis and keeps on drinking until it explodes just like in this video. It's very satisfying, though it does leave you with a bit of clean-up after, and you still have the itchy bite to deal with. But at least you can take your revenge beforehand!
Really? I’m trying this. Looking forward to seeing one of the little bloodsuckers explode. 😁
@@calliopec544 Oh, it's very true. You have to be fast though. It can be hard to get the pinch on in time before the little bugger escapes. It's more of an instinct to smash it, so it may not work the first couple times, but eventually you will catch your first. And it is SATISFYING!
LOL I tried that once and couldn't do it because the biting was bothering me too much so I just smashed it.

And one thing you forgot to mention about tics that is super disturbing is that you should never try to pull out a tic with your bare hands or swipe it off in disgust after seeing it on you, the reason being that if a tic is pulled away too quickly and imprecisely, its head is so deep in your skin, gorging on your blood, that its head will get torn off inside your skin! 🤢 It will then rot underneath your skin, causing irritation in the area and nasty infections. There are lots of species out there that are bad for us but are vital to the natural ecosystem, but I fail to see how these little abominations serve any positive purpose other than a disgusting snack for desperate animals with nothing better to eat. Would it be safe to say that the world wouldn't lose anything if tics went extinct?

Another thing about the elephant mosquito: they also eat other mosquito larvae when they are young ,so not only are they important pollinators, but also act as a control system for other mosquitoes!
I often had a hornet (~3cm long) on my window's insect net. These things are basically your ordinary wasp but scaled up a lot. When they arrive, you'll hear them, it sounds like a full-throttle cessna, just a bit less loud. They are less aggressive than the small hornets (it's harder to provoke them to sting you) but when they do it gets dangerous after only a few doses.
And I also once had a mosquito at the same insect net that systematically poked into every hole of the grid of small lines that make up the insect net within a square decimeter. I watched it as it crawled (Yes, when they really want to they can crawl!) along the net in rows, poking into each hole expecting to taste blood. It gave up after half an hour and buzzed off again with this nasty whining sound.

So I'm from mid to south Alabama and I've only seen mosquitoes as these huge insects with big wings, spindly legs, and that terrifying mouth/needle thing that they use to suck the blood out of you...fastforward to 2008 and I've moved to Kentucky, and my SO is complaining about all the mosquitoes, and how they're so annoying, and I'm literally confused bc I haven't seen one mosquitoe since I moved to Tennessee/Kentucky (I'm on the border of the states)...but still I don't say anything, I'm still new to the area and new to the relationship...again, fastforward to 2011 and it's a particularly hot summer and I see this insects that are smaller than flys but bigger that gnats, and my SO is like, "all these damn mosquitoes!"...I'm like, "WHAT MOSQUITOES!?!" I basically think he's crazy...and that's the year that I learn that mosquitoes aren't always huge with huge curled up needle mouths like in Alabama!! I honestly didn't believe him at first and actually googled it bc I thought he was crazy!! But no...he's not crazy...they literally come in every shape and size and are still technically mosquitoes!! For three years I just assumed my husband didn't know what he was talking about, and the whole time, I was the one who didn't understand that they literally come in all shapes and sizes!!

I remember my mom caught dengue fever while she was pregnant with my little brother. We lived in an area where people littered on the road and that caught a lot of mosquitos. Both my mom and my dad were admitted to the hospital immediately and I was sent to live with my grandparents. Thankfully my little brother was ok and he wasnt harmed and both my parents recovered fast. Its so heart breaking to find out that many people around the world didnt make it😭😭 The horrible experience I had with bugs were TICKS soo annoying😤😤😤 I remember after a visit to my grandparents house, I saw something black in belly, at first I thought to was a birth mark but imagine my surprise when I saw LEGS!? I showed it to my mom and she said that it was a tick and that we had to remove it asap. I really didnt get what the big deal was but after my mom told me how dangerous they were I nearly peed my pants. All of these happened while I was in Sri Lanka which is where Im from but I moved to Finland last December and here because of the deadly winter no mosquitos nor ticks are found, not sure when the spring arrives they'll pop out too but I suggest y'all to move here 😐😐

I once got dengue from a sting of a mosquito. Trust me. No matter how tough or macho you think you are, dengue renders our bodies weak to the point moving around is already difficult. My brother also got one back in early 2017 (i got it in 2nd half of 2016). I got bigger build than him so i could move around a little bit. He, on the other hand, found it hard to even get up from the bed.
I do appreciate it, though I wish he had also warned against pulling a tick straight out- everyone be careful, since ticks are also infamous for having their mouthparts be able to come off and continue infecting the host if the rest of the tick is forcefully removed!

when I was a kid, I got bitten by a mosquito that carries dengue. I was at my death point and my parents didn't notice it. I was absent for 3 days and on my 3rd day, I was dying. you will feel sleepy but you can't for some reason because of the sunlight. I slept for 48 hours without eating or drinking even. my fever goes up and down constantly. After being confined in the hospital, my chances of living are 20/50. I was in a coma too. I'm glad I am still alive today.

I was in an apartment building once that a neighbor had brought in Bed Bugs, the multiplied and bread, then they spread to all the apartments. There were so many. I still remember once exact moment of feeling one crawl on my chest, under my shirt. It felt like sweat dripping down and it was hot then, so I checked anyway and there it was. I got that thing off me fast. I had to vacuum EVERYWHERE in the apartment constantly, including where the wall connects to the floor because of cracks behind the moldings. It was ALOT of work to vacuum so much every day to keep them out of my space. Don't know why it took so long to have pest control come in, when the Super Attendant knew about it before it got extreme. BTW, one of the couple who brought them into the building from a mattress taken from trash died soon after this started getting extreme.

Serious question: I grew up in Alabama, where mosquitoes were huge, but while everyone was using bug spray, and candles to keep mosquitoes away, I've NEVER had a problem with them. Seriously, I'd be at a pool party or bonfire party, and I'd see people swatting at them, but I've literally and honestly never had a problem! I was told it's a pheromone thing, but is that true? Are they drawn to pheromones or is it something else? Bc I swear I've never used bug spray or repellent candles and I've never ever had a problem with mosquitoes biting me or bothering me...🤷♀️
Don't die as a disbeliever
Late response! As someone else who lives (and grew up in Alabama), I never had a problem with mosquitoes either. I genuinely don’t know what it is, but it’s strange.
Though I was very sceptical, I decided to buy a plug-in bug "putter-offer" (I can't remember the real word lol!) It has a blue light and apparently emits a very high-pitched sound which annoys mozzies (it doesn't bother the dog). Surprisingly, it worked! I had a multipack, so one went in my bedroom and another in our boat. The number of bugs on the boat dropped dramatically and as long as I have it switched on, I don't get any in my bedroom.
I'm _not_ promising that they work under all circumstances, but if you're somewhere that there are biting bugs, this is worth a crack. IIRC they cost me about £10 for two or three of them (I wouldn't have bothered if they were more expensive!)
Re tics, DON'T use ordinary tweezers to remove them! Buy a pair of proper tic removers (it's like tweezers, a single item known as a pair... I guess it's because there are two "legs" or "arms", depending on your POV?) Anyway, it's essential to do that or else you could end up leaving the heads still attached or the mouthparts under the skin.
If you have any pets, particularly those which can go through grassland, check them _every day_ for tics, especially if they have thick coats - check all the way down to the skin. I know that's going to be difficult but it's essential. If you don't, you could end up losing them, or losing a lot of money at the vet. (I _think_ there are animal shampoos which can get rid of them, so check that out. A regular bath might be the "easier" thing to do with some animals!) Aussies will undoubtedly know all about the dangers of a particular tic they have there that can kill a smaller animal in a matter of hours. This is how seriously it must be taken!
If you can't remove a tic from your pet, it's worth the emergency late night fees (because it's always going to be then! It's never during their opening hours... 🤦🏻♀️) to take them to the vet's and have them remove it _before_ they get sick. I'll emphasize this - particularly in countries where tics carry diseases: check them _every single day!_ If you only have time to do it once, make it part of the routine for after their final trip outside. If possible, check them after each time out, particularly if you're walking them in long grass. You yourself should wear long leg jeans or something equally thick and tuck them into long socks, even in the hot weather. It's the best way to protect yourself if you _must_ go through grass. If you can keep the walk to a grass-free or short grass area, that's by far the best option.
Sorry for sounding like a particularly annoying mum, but I am one, and I can't abide the thought of any creature (human or otherwise) suffering from something preventable. Take care out there, especially as the weather warms up. With climate change, it's going to be a much earlier time for them to appear. I've found nonnative mosquitoes in the UK - some flipping huge ones! - in the last 4-5 years, and woke up with bites all down the outside of my right hand. Within a day, they'd all gone huge and full of pus, and they itched like crazy. As we were on the water at the time I couldn't get to see anyone so I ended up cutting them open with a sterilized blade and draining them until the blood ran clear. Then I packed each one full of antibiotic cream and covered my hand up. Fortunately, it worked, but that's got to be last resort territory!
I would like to know the brand so I can order I hate bugs
Respect. He put Joe Caine in the video
Up here in Alaska, the Mosquito is called our 'State Bird', because of how prominent they are during the summer. When one lands in you, as kids, we would tighten our skin with our free hand while they are biting you, and they will literally drink your blood until they pop, which, is gross, but at least it's one less mosquito... Hah!

If it weren't for the anti-coagulants and deadly disease spreading, the state bird of Minnesota, the mosquito, wouldn't be so bad, I would just let them have a drink.

There was a tick on me not to long ago but a friend pointed it out before it bit me it looked like it had stag 2 maybe 3 lime disease🦠 but it needs to be 7,8 or 9 before it is too bad. I think? So no reel threat for me that time but lime disease will make joints harder to move and more staff so it is bad be careful.

I've been killing mosquitoes and flies since. One time I was outside and a mosquito landed on my clothes. It flew on to my arm and I approached it slowly, before high speed swatted it down. Washed my arm and hand afterward.
How to kill flies:
1: Take off your slipper like an Asian parent
2: Wait for it to land OR take off both slippers (Holding each in separate hands)
3: Apporach it very slowly making sure it won't fly away (Until swatting distance)
4: Hit it incredibly fast
5: Repeat steps 1 - 4
I'd add the Fire Ant to this list. They are ever so tiny but when they bite, you pay attention. Their name is well-earned.

I went to Nigeria in 2016 or something and I can confirm that mosquitos are annoying and spread malaria in your sleep mostly. I am the youngest child, and I got infected first in my sleep, then my older brother, on his sleep again, then my older sister got infected on her sleep after my brother, and my cousin in Nigeria got it as well. Usually you go to sleep wake up and you have malaria the next day, what happened was, I woke up and my vision was blurry then I kept closing my eyes going in and out if sleep not even hearing anything, a doctor came to see me but then he went and disappeared my siblings said there was no doctor, and now after revisiting there in 2022 and it turns out the doctor was just one of my uncles
Everyone in my whole family got late Lyme disease, including our dog who passed away about a month ago. After we found out we all took antibiotics and went keto. Now, we are all doing much better although my dad and my sister are still struggling with it but they also have bartenella and kandita. :(
I live in Brazil and i got Dengue Fever last year, i don't wish that thing even to my worst enemy, made me feel like garbage for a full week, the worst thing to me was how bitter my saliva was, anything i tried to eat was bitter as hell as result, even water, and since you need water to counter fever, you gotta do what you gotta and i drank a bunch of bitter water for a full week, as for the fever i could control with regular medicine but it would never completely wear off, it's a thing that haunted me a full week and they say if you get it a second time it can be a lot worse. These mosquitos are the scourge!
anyone else feel itchy? i feel like they are all over me rn
Your not supposed to just pull a tick off though....99% of the time it's head will be stuck in your skin still allowing the disease to still infect...your supposed to put a flame near them or suffocate with butter or similar, or gently twist counterclockwise
No you tie a string near the mouth and pull at it don’t use tweezers will make you sick if you accidentally popped their body there mouth is like a straw that can puke up food like a bird.
@tinachen9728 thats about exactly what I said in a sense...never just pull them out because their head pops off and stays in your skin....
Hi everyone I hope you are all doing well 💗 😊
I'm a city boy, dont have country in my genes at all. Born and raised in the city my whole life. Unfortunately the college I went to was in a country area, go figure. Anyways, some old friends of mine once decided to go on a joy ride through the country. Tall grass, corn fields, all that country person stuff, and it was a surprisingly amazing time. Especially when night time hit and the moon and stars were on full display, man it was absolutely beautiful. I guess sort of like a Dukes of Hazard thing. But the time came for us to go back home and as we were heading back they looked back and told me "Hey man, be sure to check your whole entire body AND your clothes and take a shower as soon as you get home. But check your clothes thoroughly". I asked why and they said "If you see anything, then you'll know exactly why, if not, then you have nothing to worry about". This obviously concerned me because I had no clue what that meant.
Got back home and immediately took their advice because they spooked me out. Now up til that point in my life I had never seen a tick personally, but I knew what they looked like and what they did. Most especially because of that old 90s movie about deadly ticks. But I looked and saw one, thankfully, crawling on my arm instead of already being burrowed in it. I instinctively swiped it, flushed it down the drain, stripped in the bathroom and began to stomp all over my clothes and immediately tossed them in the wash and hopped directly in the shower and washed myself for about 15-20 minutes. I knew all about ticks and what they were capable of and I was terrified to have one crawling on me. Havent been back to the countryside ever since.
It only takes 24 hours for a tick to transmit a disease. If the tick has been latched to your body for more than 24 hours, seek medical attention as fast as you can. It also helps to bring the tick for analysis, so that other diseases can be tested.
Bedbugs not only live in your mattress, they also live in the cracks in the floor, and the walls, box-spring, picture frames, your couch, and loveseat, and everywhere else roaches can be found nesting Moreover, Bedbugs don't only feed at night they will feed on you during the day if you work nights. This is first-hand experience, how did I get rid of em I vacuumed everywhere every day for 11 days straight, destroyed all the eggs I could find on day one, and vacuumed every bedbug I saw. On day 12, I didn't see any new signs of bedbugs, nor did I see anymore, but yes, you can see bedbugs in the same places you see the moldings. Also the speed the experts claim is Bedbugs top speed is drastically slower then the top speed I seen a few move I thought they were roaches and when I had the roach kill equipment in hand I moved the crib mattress and saw they were Bedbugs not roaches so I got the vacuum. So here are more facts that the experts don't know yet. You're welcome

Man i use to make a little cut on my arm and then drink the blood.
for a fact, in my country (ill tell u its not Africa) the anopheles Gambiae mosquitoes are coming back (well not rlly its been here ever since, but it wasn't active). It wasn't active for 3-5 years. It started about 9-10 weeks ago. The news said it started again because someone dumped 3 bucket of water in soil (idk how that works but. uhm). To today it was estimated 500-590 deaths.
Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.
Bed bugs mess with your mental health they can make you seriously paranoid. If you ever had bed bugs, you'll know that they are not easy to get rid of. If you find one and think it's only one 9 times out of 10, they are not the only ones there. They aren't dangerous but they are scary because they can bite you anywhere in your house not just your bed. Most are in your bed but sense you move around in your house they can get on your clothes which means they can be in your backpack, couch, dresser, bathroom, etc. And multiply in those areas. Bed bugs don't die easily, they are resistant to most bug sprays and sense they hide 90% of the time you can't just smack them with a shoe like you would with a spider. Which is why they are hard to get rid of.
Thx for the facts it well be usefull for us and the pictures they help btw i saw a misquito in my nieghboors garden on the bush and ty for all the facts
Always remember when removing these to use a drop or two of alcohol or surgical spirit on a Q-tip, applied to the tick's head. It makes them let go (usually) so that there's no danger of leaving the head in place.
I've seen how big a Bed Bug is capable of getting and that is huge! A couple in an apartment building I used to live in brought in a mattress from trash which brought in the bed bugs, which eventually there was so many, they took over the whole building. When one of them couple died after it got extreme, the mattress was put in the huge garbage bin outdoors covered in these massive, overgrown bugs after pest control was brought in. They were like my 2 thumbs beside each other in size.
Bed bugs don't get this big. Sounds to me that you've encountered a kissing bug (Winchuka). These bugs carry the Chagas disease that can actually kill you.
@@prettyhatemachine8887 We don't get Winchuka here and there is s bit of difference in appearance between the 2. It was also confirmed by pest control to be bed bugs. I assure it is possible for them to get that big. We do get insect mutations happening here from time to time and I've have seen some interesting mutations personally. And with all the electrical stations giving their form of radiation and toxic stuff and chemical products tossed in land fill and just random spot for so long, it's easy enough to have occasional mutations happen. I have seen other insects before get bigger than they are supposed to.
They were HOW BIG NOW?!

This is much better than my sience lesson at school
Me after watching the video: *Checks under blankets, breaths through nose, vacuums house, takes a shower, looking at a piece of thread and running away, wears 10 layers of thick coats, pants, shoes, socks, hats, gloves, face masks, and eye covers, moving to the North Pole where no bug lives, riding a polar bear, petting an arctic fox, doing a backflip into the water, swimming with the fishy’s*
If you turn it upside down 💀 4:34

The weired part is watching this and mosquitos are busy biting me
FUN FACT
The soft bodied tick known as the red velvet tick doesn’t drink human blue it’s fuzzy small and eats bugs and kinda cute looking
Btw they are the size of a third of a ant
I live in Greece and OH BOY do these little creeters wreak havoc on our houses during the summer! In my household apparently I have the tastiest blood because I always wake with a pair of new red dots on my legs/hands. The itching is annoying and that's what everyone talks about when mosquitoes come to play. No diseases no nothing. In fact the worst mosquito sting I've seen up close was when my cousin got bit. It started swelling and the redness spread. But that's it. It went away after 4-5 days. Have we just gotten lucky? Or mosquitoes here just think we're not the right people to spread decease to?🤷♀️
Edit: I didn't know there were different species of mosquitoes. I guess we have the ones that are not that dangerous. Phew
Can u do more “Things u see for the first time” 👍🏽👍🏽
I love your videos
Pulling a tick will wrench it’s head off and foster a dangerous infection! The best way is to put a drop of mineral oil on the tick and let it ‘drown’ so it’ll be easier to remove when it lets go in order to breathe.
\what app do you use please tall me
Wait a second tho, ticks carry the same disease from host a host, so if you’re their first meal as in their very first meal then would happen? Would you still get disease from them?
If you added all the seconds people spent praying instead of actually helping others, it would be incalculable
why are you underrated
whoa the intro!!!! is amazing!! haha
Important facts about bed bugs: they can live for up to a year without feeding - in including the nymphs. If you get them, there are sites where you can get the chemicals to kill them, and it takes agressive daily to weekly applications for 6 months to a year to get rid of them. It's not easy, but it can be done yourself.
