We always talk about the big animals that live in the world. So, we are often aware of their dangers. In fact, bears, lions, crocodiles, sharks, and other giant animals are very dangerous. But do you know that small animals live in this world that can kill your life? In particular, you may not have even heard of insects so small that they can take our lives. This article will be critical for you to know about them.
01. Bullet Ant
The bullet ant is the largest ant among the living ants in the world. This type of ant, which is most commonly found in rainforests, is very painful if it bites us. Scientists have found that the pain felt by the sting of this ant is about thirty times more painful than the pain felt by the sting of a wasp or a bee. That means, the poison in the body of this ant is thirty times stronger than the poison in the body of a normal bee, according to the scientist. When this ant bites us, the pain we feel remains the same for twenty-four hours, so some people call this ant the twenty-four-hour ant. If you live in a humid region, if you see this ant, it is good to stay away from it immediately.
02. Botfly
This type of insect lives mostly in rainforests. These animals are really very dangerous. Because these animals can live under the skin of humans, these animals are really fierce. These animals are very fond of living under the skin of mammals. Those who have experienced it have mentioned that when these animals live under the human skin, they can even feel them walking under the skin in the larval stage. These animals do not live long under the skin of humans. They live under the human skin for about 60 days and come out as a fly. If these animals stay under our human skin, it will affect our body in a very severe way. Therefore, it is better if you stay away from this animal as much as possible. That means, be as safe as possible from bot flies by not letting them lay their eggs on your skin.
03. Fire ant
After the bullet ant, this fire ant is another ant that bites our body the most. This type of ant can sneak under our clothes without us noticing. This ant can bite several places on our body before we remove it. When these ants eat us, we can have severe allergies in our body. That is why this type of ant is said to be very dangerous. After this ant stings, the site of the bite swells and red spots appear. People can even die due to the increase in allergies caused by the sting of these ants. So stay away from these ants.
04. Killer bee
These killer bees are the most dangerous bees in the world. The poison in the body of a single bee of this type of bee is not too severe. But when they are in trouble, if they come in a herd and bite us, they can even kill us. Usually, there are about eighty thousand bees in a hive of these bees. When disturbed, they chase and attack, typically for about a mile. When disturbed, they stand by their hive and wait for twenty-four hours to sting anyone who comes by. On average, about a thousand deaths are reported due to their stings per year.
05. Kissing Bug
Among blood-sucking insects, this kissing bug is one of the world’s worst insects. This insect gets its name because it gets on the bodies of sleeping people and bites their lips. There is a risk of this insect biting people and causing a very severe disease called Changus. On average, about 10,000 deaths per year are reported from this disease. Symptoms of this disease include swelling of the infected area, fever, fatigue, and swelling of the eyelids. It is important to protect our lives because they can infect people with a serious disease that can kill people.
06. Giant Japanese Hornet
This is the largest wasp species living in the world. Usually, this wasp is about 5.5 cm long. They cause an allergy in the human body by stinging them. It causes the tissue of the human body to dissolve in a very short period of time. That’s why this wasp has received a nickname of ‘killer wasp’. There are frequently around 700 wasps in their hive. They eat bee larvae. They can kill about forty bees in one minute. According to many scientists, it has been confirmed that this giant Japanese wasp is an angry and aggressive animal.
So, apart from the big animals of the ferocious species around the world, make sure to be as careful as possible from the small insects that have the potential to harm our lives as well.
