The central and southern regions of Russia are faced with an invasion of dangerous insects — predatory ladybirds-harlequins. Moscow, Sochi, Anapa, Novorossiysk and Krasnodar.
About this Telegram-channel Baza reports with reference to entomologist Vladimir Turitsin. He explained that this predatory species literally occupies people's homes, moving into them in whole colonies.
The main reason for the surge in the population of this species was the wet summer, which led to an increase in the aphid population. It is she who is the main food base for predatory ladybirds.
The entomologist warned that right now harlequins are preparing for wintering and are flooding cottages and apartments. It is not recommended to touch them dangerously with bare hands, since the insect secretes hemolymph.
This substance can provoke allergic reactions on the skin, and if it enters the human body, it can cause poisoning.
Earlier, EADaily reported that European countries faced an invasion of giant Asian hornets due to climate warming. Dangerous winged insects attacked children and their caregivers in a water park in western Germany.
