The bearded fireworm is a marine bristleworm, a soft-bodied sea creature with a row of stinging white bristles along each side. It lives in warm coastal waters of the tropical Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. Its bristles can sting people who touch it, so it is worth knowing what it looks like.1

Pails che piztgan

Tge fa ses tissi?

Its bristles inject a powerful neurotoxin, a poison that attacks the nerves, when they are flared against skin. This causes intense irritation and a painful burning sensation around the contact area. The sting can also cause nausea and dizziness.1

Quant privlus è el per umans?

It is not considered a threat to humans unless touched by unsuspecting swimmers. The burning sensation lasts up to a few hours, although a painful tingling may remain around the area of contact.1

Sche ti tutgas ses pails

  • Use adhesive tape to press onto the area and then remove it, which can help pull out the spines. Applying isopropanol (rubbing alcohol) to the area may help ease the pain.1
  • Metta la plaja en aua chauda, uschè chauda sco che la persuna po supportar senza sa brischar, e tschertga agid medicinal per allontanar las spinas. N'emprova betg da las chavar ora sez.

  • Dà spazi a l'animal. Sche ti scuntras in, resta calm, va plaun enavos e lascha ir el per sia via.
