Kudungwa

Sumu hutoka kupitia mdungo.

Sumu yake hufanya nini?

Its venom is mainly made of excitatory neurotoxins, which attack the nerves and make them overactive. Local symptoms can include swelling (oedema), pain at the sting and paraesthesia (tingling or prickling). Wider symptoms can include vomiting, heavy sweating, drooling, breathing problems, a fast heartbeat and abdominal pain. A lab measure of venom strength (LD50) is 4.14 mg/kg.1

Akidunga

Poza mahali palipodungwa kwa barafu na umweke mtu bila kutikisika. Tafuta msaada wa kitabibu haraka, hasa kwa watoto: baadhi ya nge ni hatari ya kifo kwa watoto.

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
