I really hate insects.   I have heard of all of those, I really didn't need to be reminded of the bot fly.   I read something about a guy getting a larvae in his head once.   Fucking nasty.   I really hate bees/hornets and Wasps.

I think that Africanized bees are already here.  I know a beekeeper who got out of the business because of them.

I thought that they were in Colorado now too.

 

I think that I read that the beekeepers keep having to change out their queens with new queens when their hives become aggressive.

I guess it's possible that I thought it was a local story when it was not.

I didn't know bot fly larvae could get into your brain...  crazy!

Native honey bees are not defenseless against the Asian giant hornet.

Although a handful of Asian giant hornets can easily defeat the defenses of many individual honey bees, whose small stings cannot inflict much damage against such a large predator, the Japanese honey bee (Apis cerana japonica) has evolved a collective defence.

When a hornet scout locates and approaches a Japanese honey bee hive it will emit specific pheromonal hunting signals. When the honey bees detect these pheromones, a hundred or so will gather near the entrance of the nest and keep it open, apparently to draw the hornet further into the hive or allow it to enter on its own. As the hornet enters the nest, a large mob of about five hundred honey bees surround it, completely covering it and preventing it from moving, and begin quickly vibrating their flight muscles. This has the effect of raising the temperature of the honey bee mass to 47 °C (117 °F). The honey bees can just tolerate this temperature, but the hornets cannot survive more than 45 °C (113 °F), and die. Often several bees perish along with the intruder, but the death of the hornet scout prevents it from bringing reinforcements which could wipe out the colony.

I'd heard of that tactic before, but didn't realize these were the hornets it worked against.

Nature is fricking impressive.

I hate Ants    Fire ants weren't on there and they are nasty little buggers

I feel like a second grader learning about the world again when I find articles like this one. Nature is perfect in every size, shape, and form.
