The poison contains histamine and acetylcholine. If\u00a0the\u00a0victim feels\u00a0cold in\u00a0the limbs, his or\u00a0her ears and lips go\u00a0blue, or\u00a0breathing problems start, the victim must see a\u00a0doctor.<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n
You need to remove the sting that might still be in the attacked spot. The skin usually gets red and swollen. A person feels burning, a sharp pain, and a severe itch appears a little later. If\u00a0you are not allergic, this is\u00a0where your troubles end.<\/p>\n
However, if\u00a0a\u00a0person is\u00a0allergic to\u00a0bee poison, he\u00a0or\u00a0she might have breathing problems, which is\u00a0a\u00a0serious concern.<\/p>\n
Wasp<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n
The symptoms of\u00a0a\u00a0wasp sting are like those after a\u00a0bee attack. The stung area becomes red and swollen, the victim feels pain and burning, and terrible itching comes later. There might even be\u00a0a\u00a0hemorrhage on\u00a0the skin. A\u00a0wasp can sting multiple times.<\/p>\n
Just like with a\u00a0bee attack, it\u2019s very important to\u00a0know if\u00a0you are allergic as\u00a0there may be\u00a0an\u00a0anaphylactic shock.<\/p>\n
Mosquito<\/h2>\n
![\"10](\"https:\/\/wl-brightside.cf.tsp.li\/resize\/728x\/jpg\/c8d\/da6\/b0ff085525ab5b1aa93ac1b533.jpg\" "\\"10")
<\/p>\n
Mosquito bites look like swollen red spots the size of a berry. Most often they appear in open areas of the body. Mosquitoes bite the spots where the skin is\u00a0very thin and it\u2019s easy to\u00a0get to\u00a0the blood vessels. When they bite, they inject their saliva into the wound.<\/p>\n
The saliva contains\u00a0anticoagulants that make the blood thinner. They cause the skin to\u00a0become red, to\u00a0itch, and to\u00a0swell.<\/p>\n
Tick<\/h2>\n
![\"10](\"https:\/\/wl-brightside.cf.tsp.li\/resize\/728x\/jpg\/ad4\/8bc\/75693a59f1b0ec022316db566a.jpg\" "\\"10")
<\/p>\n
The body\u2019s reaction to a tick bite is a red spot. The insect can be in the victim for a long time, growing bigger and drinking blood. The worst thing is\u00a0that ticks\u00a0infect people\u00a0with encephalitis, borreliosis, and many other diseases.<\/p>\n
If\u00a0you remove the insect from your body but the red spot doesn\u2019t go\u00a0away and continues to\u00a0grow, you have to\u00a0see a\u00a0doctor as\u00a0quickly as\u00a0possible.<\/p>\n
Flea<\/h2>\n
![\"10](\"https:\/\/wl-brightside.cf.tsp.li\/resize\/728x\/jpg\/03f\/5ac\/9ba66f5e408f3518cf4795bdca.jpg\" "\\"10")
<\/p>\n
Flea bites can easily be\u00a0mistaken for allergies or\u00a0mosquito bites because the bitten spots also look red and swollen. However, unlike mosquitoes, these insect bites are very painful, and the itch is\u00a0much worse.<\/p>\n
Fleas usually attack the legs, and only a sleeping person can be a victim. One insect can bite several times, so\u00a0the distance between the red spots is\u00a0usually from 0.5 to\u00a01\u00a0inch (1\u00a0to\u00a02\u00a0cm). Fleas transmit many serious infections.<\/p>\n
Ant<\/h2>\n
![\"10](\"https:\/\/wl-brightside.cf.tsp.li\/resize\/728x\/jpg\/17e\/e97\/74905b5b1d935210c738aacf0e.jpg\" "\\"10")
<\/p>\n
Most\u00a0ants don\u2019t present any danger to\u00a0humans. However, the red fire ant can cause a\u00a0lot of\u00a0trouble. Pustules appear on the bitten spots that will later turn into scars. The ants\u2019 poison contains toxins, so\u00a0the victim might have an\u00a0allergic reaction or\u00a0an\u00a0anaphylactic shock.<\/p>\n
A thatching ant\u2019s bite is less dangerous. It looks a lot like a mosquito bite. A pink spot appears in the bitten area that itches for a long time. At\u00a0the moment of\u00a0the bite, the victim feels a\u00a0burning pain as\u00a0though some boiling water was poured on\u00a0the skin.<\/p>\n
Cleg<\/h2>\n
![\"10](\"https:\/\/wl-brightside.cf.tsp.li\/resize\/728x\/jpg\/486\/bfe\/81003a57b79cdd3bbf3216af42.jpg\" "\\"10")
<\/p>\n
A\u00a0cleg looks like a\u00a0big fat fly. Unlike flies, clegs bite very painfully and drink human blood. At first, a small red spot appears not more than 0.03 inches wide (1 mm). Then it gets swollen and starts to itch. Clegs transmit different diseases like tularemia and anthrax, but most of\u00a0the time they attack cattle rather than people.<\/p>\n
Louse<\/p>\n
![\"10](\"https:\/\/wl-brightside.cf.tsp.li\/resize\/728x\/jpg\/a4c\/44d\/8a3f6a5b898a1cdcf3d9c3d42e.jpg\" "\\"10")
<\/p>\n
If\u00a0you notice small red dots that look like mosquito bites in\u00a0the places where hair grows\u00a0\u2014 on\u00a0your head, your neck, and behind your ears\u00a0\u2014 it\u00a0means that you have been bitten by\u00a0head\u00a0lice\u00a0or\u00a0pubic lice.<\/p>\n
If such dots appear on your back, belly, hands, or legs, they must have been cooties. The\u00a0bites are a\u00a0few inches away from each other, and the skin looks like it\u00a0was pierced. Lice transmit very serious diseases like trench-fever and typhoid.<\/p>\n
Bed bug<\/h2>\n
![\"10](\"https:\/\/wl-brightside.cf.tsp.li\/resize\/728x\/jpg\/a5f\/ea7\/cf14225e019f30cbb5cc5a9caf.jpg\" "\\"10")
<\/p>\n
At\u00a0first sight,\u00a0bed bug bites look like flea or\u00a0mosquito bites or\u00a0an\u00a0allergic reaction. The skin becomes red, swollen, and starts to itch. However, there is a way to recognize the bed bugs\u2019 \u201cwork.\u201d The bites are very close to each other and look like little roads on the skin. Bed bugs\u2019 bites are more painful than mosquitoes\u2019. The numerous roads can be\u00a0noticed in\u00a0the morning as\u00a0bed bugs hunt at\u00a0night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Very few people manage to avoid being bitten by insects. This issue becomes even more pressing in summer. Sometimes it\u2019s quite hard to identify what exactly bit you. The bite might hurt, itch, or even swell. There are many different insects, and they all transmit different diseases, so\u00a0it\u2019s very important to\u00a0correctly identify what bit you.
