Mammoth wasp
The mammoth wasp is the largest wasp found in Europe. It looks a bit like a very big bumble bee, and it lives in warm, dry places around the Mediterranean and across parts of Asia. Its young grow up inside beetle grubs.1

Mphamvu ya ululu
Ululu umatuluka kudzera mu mbola.
Ululu wake umachita chiyani?
The female stings the beetle grub to paralyse it, so it cannot move. Its venom is used on prey, not as a defence for people. The sting paralyses the beetle grub so the wasp's larva can feed on it.1
Ndi yoopsa bwanji kwa anthu?
Ngozi kwa anthu: YofatsaNgati kulasidwa ndi njuchi kapena pang'ono kuposa pamenepo. Pafupifupi yosavulaza anthu.
Ikalasa
- Chotsa mbola ya njuchi poikwangula ndipo ziziritsa pamalopo.
- Ngati munthuyo akuvutika kupuma, nkhope kapena khosi zikutupa, kapena akumva ngati akomoka, ndi vuto ladzidzidzi la ziwengo (allergy): imbira nambala yadzidzidzi ndipo gwiritsa ntchito jakisoni wake wa adrenaline (adrenaline pen) ngati ali nawo.
Nthawi zonse yamba wayimbira nambala yadzidzidzi (112, 000, 911). Awa ndi malangizo wamba a chithandizo choyamba, osati malangizo a dokotala. Zoyambira za chithandizo choyamba
Khala wotetezeka
- Usakhudze, kugwira kapena kuseweretsa nyama yakuthengo, ngakhale yaing'ono, ndipo ngakhale ikuoneka ngati yagona kapena yafa.
- Ipatse malo. Ukakumana nayo, khala chete, bwerera m'mbuyo pang'onopang'ono ndipo uilole ipite njira yake.
- Ikakulasa: khala chete, usasunthe, imbira nambala yadzidzidzi (112, 000, 911) kapena pita kuchipatala mwachangu. Kumbukira m'mene inkaonekera, chithunzi chimathandiza.
Sikufuna kukuvulaza. Imagwiritsa ntchito ululu wake kugwira chakudya kapena kudziteteza, ndipo imakonda kwambiri kubisala. Zambiri za kukhala wotetezeka

Ndi masamu chabe mu msakatuli wako. Palibe chomwe chimasungidwa kapena kutumizidwa kwina.

Mfundo
It is the largest wasp found in Europe.1
It is a parasitoid: its young develop by feeding on another insect, a beetle grub, which dies in the process.1
Some researchers suggest it was the model for a gold Minoan pendant called the Malia Pendant.1
The European rhinoceros beetle is its main host, but it also lays eggs on the grubs of several other beetles, including the European stag beetle.1
