Go out on an outing and don't beat when you encounter cryptopteropters

The most beautiful April day on earth is a good time to step on the green. However, this is also the season when some small insects begin to be active, and the wild is careful not to be "kissed" by it. Recently, Mr. Zhang, a citizen, was bitten by a "mosquito" when sweeping the grave, and he did not expect that after a few days, his skin began to fester, and he went to the hospital to check and learned that he was injured by cryptoptera.

On April 6, Mr. Zhang returned to his hometown of Lushan City to visit the grave, because he left late, and when he arrived at the cemetery, it was already a little dark. Mr. Zhang set up the offering, and when he was worshipping the ancestors, he suddenly felt that there was something on his neck, so he patted it with his hand, and did not take it seriously. Unexpectedly, when he got up the next day, the back of his neck was red and swollen, because there was no obvious pain, and he did not pay attention to it. But on the third day, the skin on the back of Mr. Zhang's neck began to fester, and there were blisters the size of soybeans. Mr. Zhang hurried to the hospital for examination, and the doctor said that he had been injured by the venom of the poisonous cryptopteryx.

Coincidentally, two days ago, the citizen lady drove her family to Poyang Lake to walk, and the next day after returning, she found that the child's feet were "attacked" by cryptoptera, and a large number of pustules were raised.

Xunyang Evening News reporter learned during the interview that cryptopteropterans breed faster in March to September every year, and during the day they inhabit wet grasslands, rice fields and vegetable gardens; at night, they fly in groups at bright and lighted places. Now is the time for cryptopteropters to be infested. Therefore, when going out on an outing, you must be careful to prevent insects. In addition, because all segments of the body of cryptoptera contain toxins, the venom on the body is strongly acidic and has a pathogenic effect, and we generally face small flying insects when they often flap or drive away, causing the insects to secrete venom after being frightened. However, most insects do not release venom when they crawl, and only when cryptoptera is slapped or crushed, the skin comes into contact with venom, which will lead to the development of cryptoptera dermatitis.
