Izinwele ezihlabayo

Izinwele ezincane noma amaboya aphukela esikhumbeni bese ehlaba.

Ubuthi baso benzani?

The spines of the green caterpillars release a very painful venom at the slightest touch. Contact is not life-threatening to humans, but it irritates the skin and causes an acute skin inflammation called erucism.1

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

Contact with the spines is not life-threatening to humans, but it causes painful skin irritation.1

Senzani uma sesabile?

When sitting head-down or when touched, adults shake and expose their hindwing eyespots. Caterpillars defend themselves with stinging spines.1

Uma uthinta izinwele zaso

Ezinweleni zezimbungu ezihlabayo: zisuse ngetheyiphu enamathelayo, bese ugeza isikhumba. Ungahlikihli.
Uma kulunyiwe: geza bese upholisa. Thola usizo lwezokwelapha uma umuntu ezizwa engaphilile noma opha kalula.

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 uthinta izinwele zaso: hlala uzolile, ungashukumi, shayela inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911) noma uye esibhedlela ngokushesha. Khumbula ukuthi besibukeka kanjani, isithombe siyasiza.

Asikuzingeli wena. Sisebenzisa ubuthi baso ukuze sibambe ukudla noma ukuzivikela, futhi singancamela ukucasha. Okwengeziwe mayelana nokuhlala uphephile

Amaqiniso

The caterpillars' spines are urticating, meaning they can cause a stinging reaction on contact.1

Adults live only 1 to 2 weeks and do not eat during this stage.1

After emerging from the cocoon, adults inflate their furled wings with fluid pumped from the body, which takes about twenty minutes.1

Females attract males by releasing wind-borne scent chemicals (pheromones) from a gland at the end of the abdomen.1

Many flies and wasps are parasitoids of this moth, laying their eggs in or on it.1
