How can I not be stung by jellyfish?
The best way
It's far from them
According to reports, June to August is the active period of jellyfish, especially after the rain, jellyfish will be close to the sea in large numbers. If you are accidentally stung by a jellyfish, do not wash it with fresh water, because this will accelerate the release of venom; you should wipe off the tentacles or venom from the touch as soon as possible with a towel, clothing, etc., and then seek medical attention immediately.
