The Philippine hornet is a species of hornet found only in the Philippines. It is known for its potent venom, which is the most toxic of any wasp species tested. Its sting can cause severe symptoms, so it is important to know it when you see one.1

The venom is the most toxic of any wasp species tested, measured by its effect on mice. Its LD50 (the dose that kills half of the mice tested) is 1.6 mg/kg, which is lower than the 4.0 mg/kg of the Asian giant hornet, so it is more toxic per unit of weight. Severe envenomation can cause pain at the sting site, convulsions (fits), cyanosis (bluish skin from low oxygen) and hematuria (blood in the urine).1

Its venom is highly potent, but the Asian giant hornet (Vespa mandarinia) is responsible for many more human deaths. This is because the Asian giant hornet injects a much larger volume of venom per sting.1

Sch'el piztga

  • Sgratta ora l'aguigl d'avieul e sfradenta il lieu.
  • Sche la persuna ha difficultads da respirar, unfladiras da la fatscha u da la gula, u sch'ella sa senta sco da svanir, è quai ina urgenza allergica: clama tes numer d'urgenza e duvra sia penna d'adrenalina, sch'ella ha ina.

Clama adina l'emprim tes numer d'urgenza (112, 000, 911). Quai è in cussegl general d'emprim agid, betg in cussegl medicinal. Basa da l'emprim agid

Resta en segirezza

  • Na tutga, na piglia e na tizza mai in animal selvadi, gnanc in pitschen, ed era sch'el para da durmir u d'esser mort.
  • Dà spazi a l'animal. Sche ti scuntras in, resta calm, va plaun enavos e lascha ir el per sia via.
  • Sch'in tal animal ta piztga: resta calm, na ta mova betg, clama tes numer d'urgenza (112, 000, 911) u va spert en in ospital. Ta regorda co ch'el veseva or, ina foto gida.
