Tree bumblebee
The tree bumblebee is a bumblebee that lives across much of Europe and northern Asia. It has spread to Great Britain, Ireland and Iceland since the start of the twenty-first century. It often nests near people and can reach flowers in places many other bees do not.1

毒液力量
毒液從螫針出來。
牠對人有多危險?
對人的危險: 輕微跟蜜蜂螫差不多或更輕微。對人基本上無害。The tree bumblebee is generally quite docile. If disturbed, it can defend its nest and has been known to sting people it sees as a threat.1
牠害怕時會做什麼?
If disturbed, it can defend its nest proactively and may sting.1
如果牠螫人
- 把蜜蜂的螫針刮掉,然後冷敷患處。
- 如果傷者呼吸困難、臉部或喉嚨腫脹,或覺得快要昏倒,這就是過敏急症:打緊急電話,如果傷者有腎上腺素自動注射筆,就使用它。
一定要先打緊急電話(112、000、911)。這是一般急救指引,不是醫療建議。 急救基本知識
注意安全
- 絕對不要碰、抓或捉弄野生動物,就算是很小的動物,就算牠看起來在睡覺或已經死了也一樣。
- 給牠空間。如果遇到了,保持冷靜,慢慢往後退,讓牠自己離開。
- 如果被牠螫了:保持冷靜,保持不動,打緊急電話(112、000、911)或趕快去醫院。記住牠的樣子,有照片會很有幫助。
牠不是想來抓你。牠用毒液來捕捉食物或保護自己,而且牠更想躲起來。 更多安全知識

小知識
Queens can mate with more than one male, which is unusual for bumblebees, and a female may mate up to 6 times.1
Because of multiple mating, sisters in a colony may have different fathers.1
The species has a symbiotic relationship with phoretic mites, which it carries around and which probably feed on mushrooms or nest parasites.1
Within a colony, a worker's sister is about 75% genetically related to her, while a brother is about 25% related.1
The first British sighting was on 17 July 2001 near the village of Landford in Wiltshire.1
A nest can hold 150 workers or more, and some authorities say up to 400.1
