Akidunga

Osha na upoze sehemu zilizodungwa.
Mtu akipata shida ya kupumua, uso au koo likivimba, au akijisikia kuzimia, hiyo ni dharura ya mzio: piga namba ya dharura.

Daima piga namba ya dharura kwanza (112, 000, 911). Huu ni mwongozo wa jumla wa huduma ya kwanza, si ushauri wa kitabibu. Misingi ya huduma ya kwanza

Kaa salama

Kamwe usimguse, kumkamata wala kumchokoza mnyama wa porini, hata akiwa mdogo, na hata akionekana amelala au amekufa.
Mpe nafasi. Ukikutana naye, tulia, rudi nyuma polepole na umwache aende zake.
Akikudunga: tulia, usitikisike, piga namba yako ya dharura (112, 000, 911) au nenda hospitali haraka. Kumbuka alivyoonekana, picha husaidia.

Hakuwindi wewe. Hutumia sumu yake kukamata chakula au kujilinda, na hupendelea zaidi kujificha. Zaidi kuhusu kukaa salama

Ukweli

Workers can jump up to 2 cm high and 10 cm far, using a synchronised push from their middle and hind pairs of legs.1

When workers become queens or gamergates, their brains become smaller.1

Some workers can mate and lay fertilised eggs just like the queen. These workers are called gamergates.1

Enzymes that slow ageing are increased when workers turn into reproductives.1

The nest entrance is closed by the ants in the evening and reopened during the day.1
