The Eastern lubber grasshopper is one of the largest grasshoppers in the United States, with bright, easy-to-spot colours. It lives in the southeastern and south-central United States, including all of Florida. It is poisonous rather than venomous: it does not bite or sting, but it can harm animals that eat it.1

Amandla oshevu

Sinoshevu uma sidliwa

Siyingozi kuphela uma kukhona okusidlayo.

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

Uma umuntu esithintile noma esidlile

  • Uma umuntu esidlile noma enezimpawu ngemva kokusidla: shayela inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo noma isikhungo soshevu (poison centre) ngokushesha.

Njalo shayela kuqala inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911). Lokhu kuyiseluleko sosizo lokuqala esijwayelekile, akusona iseluleko sezokwelapha. Izisekelo zosizo lokuqala

Hlala uphephile

  • Ungalokothi uthinte, ubambe noma ugcone isilwane sasendle, ngisho noma sincane, futhi ngisho noma sibukeka silele noma sifile.
  • Sinike isikhala. Uma uhlangana naso, hlala uzolile, uhlehle kancane bese usiyeka sihambe ngendlela yaso.
  • Uma usithintile noma usidlile: ungahlikihli amehlo noma umlomo wakho, geza izandla zakho futhi uthole usizo lwezokwelapha.

Asikuzingeli wena. Ushevu waso ukhona nje ukuze kungabikho okusidlayo. Okwengeziwe mayelana nokuhlala uphephile

Amaqiniso

1

Most predatory birds and mammals avoid it because of its toxicity, but large predatory insects can still catch and kill adults.1

2

It is one of the largest grasshoppers in the United States, along with the western horse lubber grasshopper.1

3

Its wings are too small for flight in most adults, so it relies on its colours and defences instead.1

4

Adults in the black colour form are widely known as 'diablo' or 'black diablo'.1

5

In Louisiana it is called the 'devil's horse' or 'cheval-diable', and in Mississippi it is known as the 'giant locust'.1

Umqothuli wezinganekwane

Inganekwane: Its bright colours are just for decoration.

Iqiniso: The colours are a warning to predators that the grasshopper tastes unpleasant.1
