Ukigusa manyoya yake

Kwa manyoya ya kiwavi yanayowasha: yaondoe kwa utepe unaonata, kisha osha ngozi. Usisugue.
Kwa kuumwa: osha na upoze. Tafuta msaada wa kitabibu mtu akijisikia vibaya au akivuja damu kwa urahisi.

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.
Ukigusa manyoya yake: 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

The four white tufts on the caterpillar's back may mimic the cocoons of parasitic wasps.1

Large caterpillars are mostly eaten by birds, while small caterpillars mostly disappear while dispersing.1

The fungus Entomophaga maimaiga was introduced to North America to control the spongy moth, and it also infects this species.1

There are two or more generations each year in eastern North America, and the eggs overwinter.1
