caught a biting fcuking insect yoke on my arm

ilovesleep

Was sitting in my kitchen and I feel a small kind of sting on my arm and I look down and there was some sort of a fcuking fly there. Got it off but what the fcuking fcuk was that? Flies don't sting. It wasnt a bee or a wasp either.

That's what they do when they're laying their eggs.

I think you've got about 15 mins until something bursts out of your ribcage

Have a read about the 'human botfly'.

Fully grown flies are known to have broken through the person's skin not long after the eggs are laid.

Looks like someone is going to be a mummy/daddy

Yep this is correct.

Ilovesleep: On the plus side, it's nothing to worry about really. They'll leave your skin after a while which shouldn't hurt more than say bursting a spot and you'll get used to them crawling around in there in the mean time. They're not known to have any lasting consequences so it's not the end of the world.

You should go to the hospital you might die.

If it stings rub baking soda on it. If its a dull pain rub vinegar on it.

Thank you

It was only a very slight pinch. Nothing big. Pain gone now. It was itchy for a bit too.

Where To

Is it only around here that people call horseflies pishmoles?

We only use horsefly if talking to a doctor or a vet.

squod

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse-fly

Horsefly, call them doctors in Cark. Needle like bite. bathe the wound in baking powder then apply a newspaper to the fly vigorously.

ilovesleep

So what can horseflies do to you. I'm not googling.

You'll be grand, I got a spider bite recently in Greece, didn't get antihistamine until the next day, just had a foot like muffin for a few days, my lovely holiday shoes looked rotten on me, that was the worst thing really.


Oh, and I can spin webs now too !

Thank yourself lucky you didnt get stung by these.

Id hate to see your reaction to these then.:D

This is my girlfriend opening up some of the beehives and inspecting them for the 1st time earlier this year.

If you look carefully then you can see the baby honeybees allmost ready to hatch out.


You can also see the queen bees old cell too.

Shag all. Don't even think they can transmit stuff to humans. Ity's very unlikely amount to anything. Bathe area in water with some bread soda in, have a ****, go asleep.

It might have been a mosquito. I caught one in the act two nights ago. They're bastards. Now, I have a huge red swelled are on my leg.

I don't react well to them and they also seem to love me. I caught another last night in the bedroom and took great pleasure in hunting and killing him. Fúcker.
