The bald-faced hornet is a wasp with a striking black and white body and a white face. It builds large, hanging paper nests in trees and bushes across North America. Its workers will defend the nest by stinging repeatedly, so it is important to keep well away from its nests.1

North America, including Canada, the Rocky Mountains, the western coast of the US and most of the eastern US. Most common in the Southeastern US.1

It lives in forested areas and in vegetation in towns and cities. Nests are usually in trees and bushes, but sometimes under rock overhangs or on the sides of buildings, from 0.3 m to 20 m above the ground. People meet it when they walk too close to a nest or when a nest is built near homes.1

Paano ito makikilala

  • Black and white colouring, unlike other yellowjackets of its genus, which are mostly black and yellow1
  • A white or "bald" face1
  • Three white stripes at the end of the body1
  • Adults average about 19 mm long, larger than other Dolichovespula species1
  • A large, egg-shaped, grey paper nest that hangs from trees or bushes, up to 58 cm long1

Madalas mapagkamalang: Other Dolichovespula wasps are mostly black and yellow. The bald-faced hornet's black and white colouring and white face set it apart. It is not one of the true hornets, which belong to the genus Vespa.1

It is aggressive when defending its nest. Workers sting repeatedly, and colonies can have 400 to 700 workers. The risk is highest when people walk too close to a nest or when a nest is built near homes.1

Kung tumusok ito

  • Kayurin palabas ang naiwang pantusok ng bubuyog at palamigin ang lugar.
  • Kung nahihirapang huminga ang tao, namamaga ang mukha o lalamunan, o parang hihimatayin, ito ay emergency sa allergy: tawagan ang numero pang-emergency at gamitin ang adrenaline pen niya kung mayroon siya.

Laging tawagan muna ang numero pang-emergency (112, 000, 911). Ito ay pangkalahatang gabay sa pangunang lunas, hindi payong medikal. Mga batayan ng pangunang lunas

Mag-ingat

  • Huwag kailanman hawakan, hulihin o asarin ang ligaw na hayop, kahit maliit, at kahit mukha itong tulog o patay.
  • Bigyan ito ng espasyo. Kung makasalubong ka ng isa, manatiling kalmado, dahan-dahang umatras at hayaan itong umalis.
  • Kung tusukin ka ng isa: manatiling kalmado, huwag gumalaw, tawagan ang numero pang-emergency (112, 000, 911) o pumunta agad sa ospital. Tandaan ang itsura nito, makakatulong ang litrato.

Hindi ka nito hinahabol. Ginagamit nito ang kamandag para manghuli ng pagkain o ipagtanggol ang sarili, at mas gusto pa nitong magtago. Higit pa tungkol sa pag-iingat
