Lu Yongyue, a professor at the Department of Entomology at South China Agricultural University, said that the annual thrips in Guangdong are still relatively active, and there are many fewer after the temperature is high.
"Thrips are usually not harmful to people, but after falling on the skin, a small number of people will have allergic reactions, itching or small red spots are possible, wash or apply wind oil essence is generally quickly cured. ”
Miao Yongwang, a lecturer in Guangzhou insect science, said that under normal circumstances, it does not bite human skin. However, when it accidentally lands on the surface of human skin, it may attempt to bite in search of food. This bite generally doesn't last and doesn't leave a big bag like a mosquito bite. If the bite is uncomfortable, you can apply cooling oil to relieve itching.
Special attention should be paid to:
Flying insects once in the eye
Don't rub it casually
Because the insect feet have barbs

Conjunctival edema of the eyeball, exfoliation of the corneal epithelium

2. When small flying insects get into the eyes, it is recommended not to rub the eyes, just wash them off with water.
3. Try to avoid wearing yellow and green clothes.
4. The green plants on the balcony can be controlled by hanging the yellow sticky insect board 10 cm above the plant, spraying soapy water, and pruning the brown "dumpling-like" gall.
