Ukuhlaba

Ityhefu iphuma ngenaliti yokuhlaba.

Ityhefu yaso yokuluma okanye yokuhlaba yenza ntoni?

The venom works on the cockroach's nervous system. The first sting causes short paralysis of the front legs, and the second sting, into the brain, stops the cockroach from escaping and makes it groom and move sluggishly. The effect lasts for about 72 hours.1

Ukuba siyahlaba

Krwela inaliti yenyosi uyikhuphe uze upholise indawo.
Ukuba umntu uphefumla kanzima, ubuso okanye umqala wakhe uyadumba, okanye uziva ngathi uza kufa isiqaqa, yimeko kaxakeka ye-aleji: tsalela inombolo kaxakeka kwaye usebenzise ipeni yakhe ye-adrenaline ukuba unayo.

Soloko utsalela inombolo kaxakeka kuqala (112, 000, 911). Esi sisikhokelo soncedo lokuqala ngokubanzi, asilocebiso lwezonyango. Iziseko zoncedo lokuqala

Hlala ukhuselekile

Ungaze uchukumise, ubambe okanye uqhule isilwanyana sasendle, nokuba sincinci, kwaye nokuba sibonakala silele okanye sifile.
Sinike indawo. Ukuba udibana naso, hlala uzolile, buyela umva kancinci kwaye usiyeke sihambe ngendlela yaso.
Ukuba siyakuhlaba: hlala uzolile, musa ukushukuma, tsalela inombolo kaxakeka (112, 000, 911) okanye uye esibhedlele ngokukhawuleza. Khumbula ukuba sasikhangeleka njani, ifoto iyanceda.

Asikuzingeli. Sisebenzisa ityhefu yaso ukubamba ukutya okanye ukuzikhusela, kwaye singakhetha ukuzimela. Okungakumbi malunga nokuhlala ukhuselekile

Iinyaniso

The wasp stings a cockroach twice, aiming for specific nerve clusters in its body and head, rather than just injecting venom at random.1

After stinging, the wasp leads the cockroach to its burrow by pulling on one of its antennae, like a leash, even though the wasp is too small to carry it.1

The stung cockroach can still walk, swim and flip over, but it loses its normal urge to escape.1

The larva eats the cockroach's internal organs over about 8 days, and the adult wasp later emerges from the dead cockroach's body.1

A single mating is enough for a female to parasitise several dozen cockroaches.1

The wasp was brought to Hawaii in 1941 as a biological control, but this did not work well because of the wasp's territorial behaviour and the small scale on which it hunts.1
