Recently, it is the time when the bees are divided, and they have to go up the mountain every day. The mountain at the turn of spring and summer is the world of flowers, and every morning, hiking on the quiet mountain road, breathing in the air of different flowers, and listening to the crisp birdsong, it really makes people feel comfortable and satisfied, so just right. A variety of wildflowers are arranged in an orderly manner
There are Kawanishi white thorn flowers covered with thorns
A stunning blue iris in a verdant green
There are small and delicate calyx orchids
There are also fungus flowers, chestnuts, meadowsweets, roses, creeping branches, silver orchids, moss horse artemisia, etc., and later there is time to introduce them to you.
Today when passing near a small stream, I met ants, everyone climbing and hiking should have met, combined with the experience of leading the team before, everyone is relatively unfamiliar with ants, summarize my own experience, today to introduce to you.
Basic information about ants
Ants are also called leeches, there are vampire ants and non-vampire ants, here mainly talk about vampire ants, this kind of ants are the most common we usually climb mountains, hiking, mainly live in wet lawns and woods, especially after the rain, I have met from hundreds of meters above sea level to within 3000 meters. The ant stretches and contracts on its body, and the speed is very slow. It mainly occurs in the spring and summer seasons.
What to do if you are sucked by an ant
1, if the ants suck blood, the first time do not panic, the ants are not terrible, blood sucking is not painful, use a knife to scrape it away, pay attention, the suction cup of the ant sucks very firmly, be sure to scrape the suction cup open; if there is no knife, directly with your hands, pay attention, be sure to use your fingernails to clamp the suction cup away, forcefully, quickly. Ants contain ants, which are anticoagulant, so after the ants are removed, the wound will continue to bleed, regardless of it, and the ants will slowly solidify after the failure of the ants.
2. In the week after being bitten by an ant, the wound will be very itchy, be sure to hold back, do not scratch, otherwise it will not only scratch the stuttering wound, but also scratch more and more itchy, to no avail, endure a no feeling.
How to avoid being bitten by ants, in my own experience, there are 2 suggestions
1: When passing through the ant area, be sure to pass quickly, do not stay, the faster the better, especially can not rest in place. Ants climb very slowly, and as long as they don't stay, it is not easy for ants to climb on their bodies.
2: When passing through the ant area, look at your shoes and pants every 2 or 3 minutes (ants mainly climb from the grass to shoes or pants), if you find an ant, immediately remove it, when passing through the ant area, it is best not to wear a snow cover, the ant will crawl through the gap, and you can't see it.
I have been climbing mountains and hiking outdoors for many years, and I rarely get bitten by ants. In addition, ants are not terrible, everyone should not instinctively be very afraid of ants, and shout when they meet ants, affecting the first time to remove ants.
