On the evening of April 15, the Guangxi News Channel reported that Nanning citizens were stung by wild bees hundreds of times during their visit to the Qingxiu Mountain Scenic Area. On the morning of the 20th, we received a call for help from the teacher of Sunshine New Town Primary School in Nanning City, saying that a large number of wild rows of bees were found on the trees of their campus, and the estimated number was 20,000 or 30,000, because it involved the personal safety of students in school, and hoped that the reporter could find someone to help clean it up.
According to Teacher Chen of Sunshine New Town Primary School, at 7 o'clock in the morning, he found a tree crawling with small bugs on the Wuxiangling North Campus. So I went to the tree and took a closer look, only to find that these small insects turned out to be wild rows of bees. At that time, the large row of bees on the tree just got together and did not attack Teacher Chen under the tree. However, the number of wild rows of bees that subsequently gathered on the trees increased, so that they hung on the trees to form a large but irregular sphere.
Chen Zefeng, director of the General Affairs Office of Nanning Sunshine Education Group: At the beginning, it was the size of a fist at most, and after ten minutes or so, it was bigger than a watermelon.
As teachers and students came to the campus one after another, Teacher Chen called for help while asking the colonel to stay around the tree and not let people get close. Yang Jianjun, who has been beekeeping in Nanning for more than 20 years, cannot sit still when he learns that there are wild rows of bees in the school, because his children are in the fourth grade of primary school at this school. Packing up the tools, Yang Jianjun and the reporter rushed to the Wuxiangling North Campus of Sunshine New Town Primary School.
Yang Jianjun, head of Nanning Quanjian Bee Farm: If we want to collect bees, I will take one, and today it is a UH woven bag, and put it in.
Leaning on the five or six meters high tree to set up two wooden ladders, Yang Jianjun, dressed in protective clothing, picked up a large woven bag and launched an attack on these wild rows of bees.
Scene voice: Oh, this bee should be the same kind as the Qingxiu Mountain some time ago, so much more, Qingxiu Mountain, Qingxiu Mountain, don't run, don't run.
As soon as the large woven bag in Yang Jianjun's hand approached the bee swarm, the wild row of bees seemed to explode, and quickly attacked Yang Jianjun and the reporter under the tree, fortunately, after several battles, the wild row of bees was still defeated and were included in the woven bag.
Just when the Bee Collection Operation of Wuxiangling North Campus of Sunshine New Town Primary School was successful, Mr. Huang, who was 30 kilometers away from The 1st District of Brokko in Jiahe City, called us for help, saying that at more than 3 o'clock in the afternoon yesterday, tens of thousands of wild bees also came to the terrace of the building where he lived, which frightened him into quickly closing the doors and windows and hiding in the house.
Mr. Huang, owner of Brok 1 District of Nanning Jiahe City Community: You see, they are all crazy, densely packed. Then, I also learned about this kind of thing called the platoon bee, which is very toxic and can attack people in groups.
Yang Jianjun told reporters that in fact, the toxicity of wild row bees is greater than that of bees, but it is smaller than that of large bees, and it must be kept away when encountering wild rows of bees. In addition, this year's spring climate is different from the same period in previous years, which has contributed to the large number of wild row of bees.
Yang Jianjun, head of Nanning Quanjian Bee Farm: Some time ago, the whole of Guangxi had almost 2 months of this rain without rain. Then, when the plant around us happens to have a little rain, the flower opens up, and then causes this wild bee to multip rapidly in large numbers, and when it reproduces, it will expand (divide).
However, just as Yang Jianjun arrived, the wild row of bees on the terrace of Mr. Huang's house had flown away. Yang Jianjun rinsed the scent pheromone left by the queen bee on the terrace column with clean water, and the queen bee usually secreted this odor pheromone to guide the worker bees to the designated place to gather, so washing it with clean water also avoided other wild swarms of bees from gathering here again. However, Yang Jianjun reminded that it is impossible to use highly toxic and irritating pesticides to flush the queen bee odor pheromone, otherwise the bees will be stimulated and prefer to attack people.
